Solve for x. 3x−7−2x+5=6 (1 point)

1 answer

To solve for x, we will need to combine like terms on the left side of the equation and isolate the variable x.

First, we have 3x - 7 - 2x + 5 = 6.

Next, combine like terms:

(3x - 2x) + (-7 + 5) = 6.

This simplifies to:

x - 2 = 6.

Now, isolate the variable x by adding 2 to both sides of the equation:

x - 2 + 2 = 6 + 2.

This simplifies to:

x = 8.

Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 8.
