3(5-2x)+4x=-7x equation
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
3*(5-2*x)+4*x = -7*x
Expand brackets in the left part
3*5-3*2*x+4*x = -7*x
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
15 - 2*x = -7*x
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 2 x = - 7 x - 15$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$5 x = -15$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 5
x = -15 / (5)
We get the answer: x = -3
