2x-5x+9=5 equation

The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉

You have entered [src]

2*x - 5*x + 9 = 5

$$\left(- 5 x + 2 x\right) + 9 = 5$$

Simplify

Detail solution

Given the linear equation:

2*x-5*x+9 = 5

Looking for similar summands in the left part:

9 - 3*x = 5

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 3 x = -4$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -3

x = -4 / (-3)

We get the answer: x = 4/3
