The sum of 3 times the value of x and 2 is equal to 4 less than 5 times the value x. Which equation can be used to find the value of x?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Write the written problem into an equation to get:

3x +2 = 5x -4

To solve:

Add 4 to each side:

3x+6 = 5x

Subtract 3x from each side:

2x = 6

Divide both sides by 2:

x = 6/2

x = 3
