OpenStudy (anonymous):

3x==2x+10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Its wrong ;/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3x=2x+10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x=10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no x=2 but i don't know to get that answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well if x=2 then then question would have been 3x=-2x+10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

srry the equation is 3x=-2x+10

OpenStudy (gw2011):

To get x=2 the problem has to be: 3x=-2x+10 3x+2x=10 5x=10 x=2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you I was subtracting the -2
