To find: the solution of the equation
Answer to Problem 3ST
The solution of the equation is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Concept Involved:
Solve the equation by getting the variable in one side of the equation and undoing whatever is done to it by performing reverse operation.
The solution to the equation is the value of variable that makes the equation TRUE.
Calculation: Distribute 3 in left side of the equation and 2 in right side of the equation.
In the process of getting x alone in one side of the equation we need to subtract 2x on both sides of the equation
Combine like terms in both sides of the equation
Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation
Combine like terms in both sides of the equation
Conclusion:
The solution to the given equation
