x = 7
x = 7

x = -8
x = -8

x = 8
x = 8

x = 4

Answer 1

To solve for x, we need to simplify the equation:

3x - 7 - 2x + 5 = 6

Combining like terms, we get:

x - 2 = 6

Next, we add 2 to both sides of the equation:

x - 2 + 2 = 6 + 2

This simplifies to:

x = 8

Therefore, the solution is x = 8.
