Please help I still don't understand this Algebra 1 question please help.
Solve the equation
3x-7=5x+19

Answer 1

Alrighty lets see...

3x-7=5x+19

we want to try to move things around so we get x= a number
so then
3x-7=5x+19
add 7
3x=5x+26
now subtract 5x
-2x=26
you got it from there? finish solving for x :)

Answer 2

Answer 3

Just so you can check your work:

-2x=26

Answer 4

3x-7=5x+19
3x-5x=19+7
-2x=26
X=26 divided by -2
X=-13
