Someone help please!!!!
What value of x makes the equation true. X+X+3=X+(-3)
Just combine like terms to get 2x+3=x-3
Subtract x from both sides: x+3=-3
Subtract 3 from both sides: x=-6
There's your answer! Hope this makes sense.
To find the value of x that makes the equation true, we need to solve for x. Let's go step by step.
The given equation is:
X + X + 3 = X + (-3)
First, we can simplify the equation by combining like terms:
2X + 3 = X - 3
Next, let's isolate the variable x. We can do this by subtracting X from both sides of the equation:
2X - X + 3 = X - X - 3
Simplifying further:
X + 3 = -3
To isolate x, we need to get rid of the constant term 3. We can do this by subtracting 3 from both sides of the equation:
X + 3 - 3 = -3 - 3
This simplifies to:
X = -6
Therefore, the value of x that makes the equation true is x = -6.
