Write two operations in order that you would use to solve the equation 3x - 2=7 then solve the equation

3x-2=7

You first subtract 2 from both sides, so 2-2=0 & 7-2=5

3x=5

Then you divide 3 from both sides to get "X" alone, 3x/3 = 1x (but the the one is invisible so it equal "X") and then 5/3 = 1.66666 ...

So the answer to this problem is

X=1.6

Here’s how to solve it:

3x = 7 + 2

3x = 9

x = 9/3

x = 3
