Question

Solve for 3 = x + 3 − 5x

Answer 1

`\boxed {x = 0}`

Explanation:

Solve for the value of
`x`:

`3 = x + 3 - 5x`

-Com bine like terms:

`3 = x + 3 - 5x`

`3 = -4x + 3`

-Switch the equation around:

`3 = -4x + 3`

`-4x + 3 = 3`

-Subtract 3 on both sides:

`-4x + 3 - 3 = 3 - 3`

`-4x = 0`

-When you are dividing
`0` by a positive or negative integer, it would obviously be
`0`:

`\boxed {x = 0}`

Therefore, the value of
`x` is
`0`.
