Seven less than the product of twice a number is greater than 5 more than the same number

Sagot :

seven less than (-7) than the product of twice a number (2x) is greater than (>) five more than (+5) the same number (x)

2x-7>x+5
treat the > sign as an equals for now
2x-7=x+5
subtract x from both sides
x-7=5
add 7 to both sides
x=12
put the > sign back in
x>12
