Solve x+2x+3-5x=4x-9

Evaluate

x + 2 x + 3 - 5 x = 4 x - 9

Calculate the sum or difference

More Steps

- 2 x + 3 = 4 x - 9

Move the expression to the left side

- 2 x + 3 - 4 x = - 9

Move the expression to the right side

- 2 x - 4 x = - 9 - 3

Add and subtract

More Steps

- 6 x = - 9 - 3

Add and subtract

- 6 x = - 12

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

6 x = 12

Divide both sides

\frac{6 x}{6} = \frac{12}{6}

Divide the numbers

x = \frac{12}{6}
