Question

$$4x+9+27=5x-25$$

Solve for x

$x=61$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Add $9$ and $27$ to get $36$.

$$4x+36=5x-25$$

Subtract $5x$ from both sides.

$$4x+36-5x=-25$$

Combine $4x$ and $-5x$ to get $-x$.

$$-x+36=-25$$

Subtract $36$ from both sides.

$$-x=-25-36$$

Subtract $36$ from $-25$ to get $-61$.

$$-x=-61$$

Multiply both sides by $-1$.

$$x=61$$
