so you have \[3x-26=2x+24\]
solve for x

solve for x
get like terms on one side, subtract 2x by both sides and add 26 to both. One step at a time, you are finding x
xXQuintonXx:
3x + 2x - (26 + 24)
xXQuintonXx:
likes that?
darkknight:
where did the equal sign go???

it died ._,
darkknight:
seems legit
xXQuintonXx:
*3x +2x = 26 +24
darkknight:
you had to subtract 2x from both sides, other than that, correct

3x - 2x = 26+24

He's offline! Sorry, I was trying to get back but was answering a couple of other questions.
Let's see what we have so far...\[3x−26=2x+24\]yes? okay you changed it so the variable stuff is on one end and the numbers/constants are on the other end.\[3x-2x=26+24\]after this, we would simplify and get:\[x=26+24=50\]Yes, you are correct!
xXQuintonXx:
so x=50?
