Question

Find the value of X and please show your work.

Answer 1

x= -22

Explanation:

3x=5x+44

subtract 2x from both sides and leave only x on one side 3x(-2x)=5x(-2x)+44

then you get

x=3x+44

then you subtract the 3x to both sides

x(-3x)=3x(-3x)+44

then you get

-2x=44

and divide 2 on each side so-

x= -22
