Question

$$3x+2=7-2x$$

Solve for x

$x=1$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Add $2x$ to both sides.

$$3x+2+2x=7$$

Combine $3x$ and $2x$ to get $5x$.

$$5x+2=7$$

Subtract $2$ from both sides.

$$5x=7-2$$

Subtract $2$ from $7$ to get $5$.

$$5x=5$$

Divide both sides by $5$.

$$x=\frac{5}{5}$$

Divide $5$ by $5$ to get $1$.

$$x=1$$
