You're welcome.
To solve for x in the equation 3x - 5 = 2x + 6, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation. Here's how you can do it step by step:
1. Start by simplifying both sides of the equation. Combine the like terms on both sides.
3x - 5 = 2x + 6
(3x - 2x) - 5 = 6
Simplified equation: x - 5 = 6
2. Next, move the constant term (-5) to the other side of the equation by adding 5 to both sides. This will help us isolate x.
(x - 5) + 5 = 6 + 5
x - 0 = 11
Simplified equation: x = 11
Therefore, the value of x is 11.
