Question

$$3x-4x+3x=1-2+5$$

Solve for x

$x=2$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Combine $3x$ and $-4x$ to get $-x$.

$$-x+3x=1-2+5$$

Combine $-x$ and $3x$ to get $2x$.

$$2x=1-2+5$$

Subtract $2$ from $1$ to get $-1$.

$$2x=-1+5$$

Add $-1$ and $5$ to get $4$.

$$2x=4$$

Divide both sides by $2$.

$$x=\frac{4}{2}$$

Divide $4$ by $2$ to get $2$.

$$x=2$$
