Solve 3x - 3 =27 - 2x pls answer

Let's move all the components containing x to the left side and other components to the right side (notice the change of sign of each one from + to - or - to +), then calculate [tex]x[/tex]

Step 2: Perform the calculation:

[tex]3x -3 = 27 - 2x[/tex]

Moving components:

<=> [tex]3x + 2x = 27 + 3[/tex]

Adding up components:

<=> [tex]5x = 30[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 5 (coefficient of component containing [tex]x[/tex]:

<=> [tex]\frac{5}{5} x = \frac{30}{5}[/tex]

Simplifying to work out [tex]x[/tex]:

<=>[tex]x = 6[/tex]

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 3= 27 - 2x

First we put all the x terms to on side, making it 3x + 2x - 3= 27.

Remeber that when we move a term to the other side of the equals sign (=), we change its sign to be the opposite of what it currently is.

Then, we move all the numberics to the other side, so we derieve 3x + 2x = 27 +3. Again, the sign changes when we move it across.

What is left to do is add up the quantities. So 3x + 2x = 5x and 27 +3 = 30.

We are left with 5x = 30. If 5 x's is 30, how much is one? Sinply divide it to get the answer of 30 / 5 which is six!

To make sure the answer is correct substituite 6 in the equation as x and see if its accurate: 3(6) -3 = 7 - 2 (6). And it is!

So x is equal to six.
