Question

Please explain this: 3x − 5 = 2x + 6
What do I do to find the answer?

Answer 1

Solve for x

Answer 2

Oh ok i gotcha

Answer 3

Isolate the "x" terms by subtracting 2x from each side. Get the the numeric terms on the right by adding 5 to each side.

Answer 4

Then once you add 5 to both sides as you can see on the 3x-5 side 5will give you zero and on the 2x+6 side 5 will give you 11 then you put 11 in as x on both sides and it will give you your answer.

Answer 5

Ahh>_< So is it 11? Because thats what I got >_<
