Simplify this equation 5x-8+7-2x+3-11x

Answer: 5-15-2+-8

Simplifying x = 5-15-2+8

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying 5 (5x + - 8) = 3 (11x

Reorder the terms: 5 (-8 + 5x) = 3 (11x + - 9) (-8 * 5 + 5x * 5) = 3 (11x + - 9) (-40 + 25x) = 3 (11x + - 9)

Reorder the terms: - 40 + 25x = 3 (-9 + 11x) - 40 + 25x = (-9 * 3 + 11x * 3) - 40 + 25x = (-27 + 33x)

Solving - 40 + 25x = - 27 + 33x

Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-33x' to each side of the equation. - 40 + 25x + - 33x = - 27 + 33x + - 33x

Combine like terms: 25x + - 33x = - 8x - 40 + - 8x = - 27 + 33x + - 33x

Combine like terms: 33x + - 33x = 0 - 40 + - 8x = - 27 + 0 - 40 + - 8x = - 27

Add '40' to each side of the equation. - 40 + 40 + - 8x = - 27 + 40 Combine like terms: - 40 + 40 = 0 0 + - 8x = - 27 + 40 - 8x = - 27 + 40

Combine like terms: - 27 + 40 = 13 - 8x = 13
