Given 2x - 3 = 7, what is the value of x?

2x-3=7 /×3

2x=3+7

2x=10 /÷2

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 3 = 7                         Add 3 to both sides

2x - 3+3 = 7 + 3                Combine

2x = 10                              Divide by 2

2x/2 = 10/2                       Combine

x = 5

These types of equations all follow the same pattern. The look like

ax + b = c                         You have to isolate the x so add b if b is minus or you subtract b if b is plus. Notice that b was minus in your question. So Add

Now you you have

ax  =  c - b                      That always happens. The x is isolated if you deal with b first. Now all you need to do is divide by a.

x = (c - b)/a

Try a couple

3x -4 = 5                       The answer is 3

5x + 2 = 27                   the answer is 5

first, you divide the triangle in two, tô form a retangle triangle. after, using pythagoream theorem:

18^2 = 14^2 + (x/2)^2

(x^2/4) + 196 = 324

x^2/4 = 324 - 196

x^2/4 = 128

x^2 = 512

x = √512

x = √2^9

x = 16√2 cm

i hope i you.
