Question

3x-3x+x-3=2x-1+2x-1+2x

Answer 1

First, put the numerical terms on one side and the x-terms on the other by adding or subtracting the same terms from both sides of the equation. (However, some of the terms [3x-3x} cancel each other out.)

3x-3x+x-3=2x-1+2x-1+2x

3x-3x+x-2x-2x-2x = 3-1-1

Do the addition/subtraction processes indicated.

-5x = 1

Divide both sides by -5.

x = -1/5 = -.2

I hope this helps. Thanks for asking.
