(7x+1)-(9x+3)=5 equation
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
(7*x+1)-(9*x+3) = 5
Expand brackets in the left part
7*x+1-9*x-3 = 5
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-2 - 2*x = 5
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 2 x = 7$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -2
x = 7 / (-2)
We get the answer: x = -7/2
