Answer :

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

5х – 12 = 3х + 10

  • Subtract 3x from both sides, since x can only be on one side

5х – 12 = 3х + 10

- 3x        - 3x

------------------------

2x – 12 = 10

  • Add 12 to both sides, because the 12 is negative and we need the x to be alone

2x – 12 = 10

    + 12   + 12

------------------------

       2x = 22

  • Divide both sides by 2, so we get x all by itself

2x = 22

--       --

2       2

-----------

x = 11
