The answer to the equation: 5(x + 3)=7(x – 5) is to rewrite the equation as 5x + 15=7x – 35 and then adding like variables: 50=2x and then solving for x which is x=25.

3x – 1 – x = 3x + 5;

2x - 1 = 3x + 5;

2x - 3x = 5 + 1;

-x = 6;

x = -6

5(x+3)=7(x–5) solve for x User: Graph the equation Y = 4x – 3
Weegy: Sorry can't show the graph. But here are the values. x=1, y= 1/ x=2, y=5. User: Graph the equation 4x – 5 = 2x – y User: 4x – 5 = 2x – y Weegy: 5/2x+1/4x=7/4+x SOLUTION: 5/2x+1/4x-x=7/4 >> (5/2+1/4-1)x=7/4 >> (7/4)x=7/4 >> x=(7/4)/(7/4) >> x=1 User: graph 4x – 5 = 2x – y Weegy: Sorry but I cannot graph that equation since we don't have a tool to attach a file on our answers (More)

5(x+3)=7(x–5) solve for x
5x+15 = 7x -35
5x-7x = -15-35
-2x = -50
x = 25

solve 15x + 2 = 9x + 28
Weegy: 15x + 2 = 9x + 28, 15x - 9x = 28 - 2, 6x = 26, x = 26/6, x = 4 2/6, simplified: x = 4 1/3 (More)

The answer to the equation 3x – 1 – x = 3x + 5 is to first add and subtract like terms: 3x-x-3x=1+5 so -x=6 which is x= -6.

2x+4=28 show all work
Weegy: Solving for x. First we move like term to different sides of eq. so we leave the 2x where it is, because it's the only one, and we move the 4 to the right side as a negative 4. Now we have 2x=28-4 which is 2x=24. [ Then we proceed to get rid of the 2 to leave the x alone by diving both sides by 2. So now we have 2x/2=24/2. That should give us: x=12 ] (More)

2x+4=28;

2x = 28 - 4;

2x = 24;

x = 24/2;

x = 12
