The equation 2x + 2 = x+5 is modeled below. x What value of x makes the equation true? A X = 1 B Y = 3 C x = 5 D X = 7

Sagot :

B Y = 3

2 x + 2 - x = 5
2 x - x = 5 - 2
x = 5 - 2
x = 3

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 2 = 1x + 5

combine the like terms.

2x + 2 = 1x + 5

-2x        -2x  

------------------

2 = -1x + 5

isolate the -1x.

2 = -1x + 5

-5          -5

----------------

-3 = -1x

solve for x.

-3/-1 = -1x/-1

3 = x

so b. correct me if any of this is wrong.
