Question

Multi step equation
2x +3=-7​

Answer 1

if you need to find the value of x then I can help

First the equation looks like this:

2x + 3 = -7

first find the value of "x" which will be -5 then the equation will look like this:

2(-5) then multiply 2 and -5 which is equal to -10

this will make the equation look like this:

-10 + 3 = -7

then evaluate

-10 + 3 = -7

-7 = -7

Therefore the value of "x" is -5

Answer 2

x = -5

Explanation:

1. Subtract 3 from each side, so it now looks like this: 2x = -10
2. Divide each side by 2 to cancel out the 2 next to x. It should now look like this: x = -5

I hope this helps!
