Question

solve following equation 9x-5-11x=5(3x-7)

Answer 1

30/17

Answer 2

9x-5-11x=5(3x-7)===> 9x-5-11x=15x-35 ===> -5+35=15x+11x-9x ===> 30=17x ===> x=30/17

Answer 3

Simplifying
9x + -5 + -11x = 5(3x + -7)

Reorder the terms:
-5 + 9x + -11x = 5(3x + -7)

Combine like terms: 9x + -11x = -2x
-5 + -2x = 5(3x + -7)

Reorder the terms:
-5 + -2x = 5(-7 + 3x)
-5 + -2x = (-7 * 5 + 3x * 5)
-5 + -2x = (-35 + 15x)

Solving
-5 + -2x = -35 + 15x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-15x' to each side of the equation.
-5 + -2x + -15x = -35 + 15x + -15x

Combine like terms: -2x + -15x = -17x
-5 + -17x = -35 + 15x + -15x

Combine like terms: 15x + -15x = 0
-5 + -17x = -35 + 0
-5 + -17x = -35

Add '5' to each side of the equation.
-5 + 5 + -17x = -35 + 5

Combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0
0 + -17x = -35 + 5
-17x = -35 + 5

Combine like terms: -35 + 5 = -30
-17x = -30

x = -30/-17 = 30/17
