Question

Solve the equation.
7x2 + 5 - x = 6x2 + 10
X =

Answer 1

x = -5

Explanation:

7 × 2 + 5 - x = 6 × 2 + 10

Multiply.

14 + 5 - x = 12 + 10.

Combine like terms.

19 - x = 24

Isolate x (I'm going to add x and subtract 24 from both sides to avoid changing signs)

-5 = x

Final answer

x = -5
