i need help can someone explain how to do this
X+3+2x=X+35X what is the answer or can someone help me?
X+3+2x=X+35X
3x + 3 = 35x
3 = 32x
0.09375 = x
Thank you Miss Sue i entered the wrong question?
Sure, I can help you with that equation. Let's go step-by-step to find the solution.
1. Start by simplifying the equation. Combine like terms on both sides of the equation:
X + 3 + 2X = X + 35X
Combine the X terms on the left side:
3X + 3 = X + 35X
2. Next, combine constant terms. In this case, it's the number 3 on the left side:
3X + 3 = 36X
3. To isolate the X term, we want to move all terms with X to one side of the equation. To do that, we can subtract X from both sides:
3X - X + 3 = 36X - X
Simplify:
2X + 3 = 35X
4. Now, subtract 2X from both sides to isolate the X term on one side:
2X + 3 - 2X = 35X - 2X
Simplify:
3 = 33X
5. Finally, to solve for X, divide both sides of the equation by 33:
3 / 33 = 33X / 33
Simplify:
1/11 = X
So, the solution to the equation is X = 1/11.
