Question

Solve this pls 7x-10-x=2x+26

Answer 1

Answer:

$7x - 10 - x = 2x + 26$

Taking like terms ( i.e. terms with same variables ) to left side and constant terms ( i.e. simple numbers ) to right side . .

$⇢7x - x - 2x = 26 + 10$

$⇢6x - 2x = 36$

$⇢4x = 36$

$⇢x = \frac{36}{4}$

$⇢ \boxed{x = 9}$

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

#1) Simplify each side.

• 7x - 10 - x = 2x + 26
• 6x - 10 = 2x + 26

#2) Bring x terms to the left side and numbers to the other side.

• 6x - 2x = 26 + 10
• 4x = 36

#3) Divide both sides by 4.

• 4x/4 = 36/4
• x = 9
