Solve for x. 2x−5=−x+7

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation

2x−5+x=−x+7+x

3x−5=7

3x−5+5=7+5

3x=12

x=4

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to isolate the variable on one side first so that the equation is easier to solve.  To do that, add x to both sides to get 2x + x, which is 3x.  This gets rid of the -x on the other side and results with the new equation

3x - 5 = 7.   Add 5 to both sides to get 3x = 12, then divide both sides by 3 to get x = 4.  

You can check your work by plugging in 4 for x.  

2(4) - 5 = -(4) + 7

8 - 5 = 3

3 = 3

Therefore, x is equal to 4.  

Hope this helped!  Have a good day!  

the equation for this situation is y=122+45. to solve the equation you would add 45 and 122 to get a total of 167lbs. in conclusion, grace's weight eight weeks ago was 167lbs.  

circle area = pi * radius^2

if diameter = 10 then radius = 5

circle area = pi * 5^2

circle area = pi * 25

circle area = 78.5398163397 square units
