Answer:

63 - x = 2x +3

Add x to both sides of the equation. The x on the left side would cancel out and on the right side add the x to 2x.

63 = 3x + 3

Now subtract 3 from both sides. The 3 on the right side would cancel out.

60 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3. The 3 with x would cancel out.

x = 20

Answer:

X=20

Explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

63−x=2x+3

63+−x=2x+3

−x+63=2x+3

Step 2: Subtract 2x from both sides.

−x+63−2x=2x+3−2x

−3x+63=3

Step 3: Subtract 63 from both sides.

−3x+63−63=3−63

−3x=−60

Step 4: Divide both sides by -3.

-3x/-3= -60/-3
