Question

What is 3x+5=2x-7
need step by step explanation

Answer 1

x=-12

Explanation:

Subtract 2x from both sides

3x + 5 - 2x = 2x - 7 - 2x

x + 5 = -7

Now Subtract 5 from both sides

x + 5 - 5 = -7 - 5

x = -12

Answer 2

-12

Explanation:

3x+5=2x-7

3x-2x+5= -7

x+5= -7

x= -7 - 5

x = -12
