Math question: Solve the following equation for x:
5x - 7 = 3x + 11
x = -6
x = 6
x = 9
x = -9
Solution:
5x - 7 = 3x + 11
Subtract 3x from both sides:
2x - 7 = 11
Add 7 to both sides:
2x = 18
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 9
Therefore, the solution is x = 9.
Determine whether the given equation has one solution, no solution, or infinitely many solutions.
2 - 3(x + 4) = 3(3 - x)
cannot be determined
one solution
no solution
infinitely many solutions
