X=1

you take the 7 to the other side with opposite sign
9x-2x=14-7
9x-2x makes 7x its like 9-2
so 7x=7 then you divide with 7
and x=1

X=1 :)
7 goes to the other side subtracting 14 because the opposite of addition is subtraction making 7
9X and -2 x combines making7
7x =7 then the opposite of multiplication "7x" (which 7 is multiplying x) is division so 7 \ by 7 is 1 :)

1) 9x-2x=7x (add/subtract like-terms, in this case 9x and -2x)
2) 7x+7=14 (plug in the final like-term, 7x, into the equation)
3) 7x=7 (subtract the 7 from the left side and the 14 on the right side)
4) x=1 (you'd get 7x=7, then divide both sides by 7 to isolate the x, and you get 1 as your answer)

First 9x-2x= 7x then subtract the 7 on both sides and you're left with 7x=7 and divide by 7, so x=1

This ordinary algebra. remedy it via putting the variable via itself on one facet of the equation. 9x- 7 = 2x + 14 ? subject: discover x 9x- 7 (-2x) = 2x + 14 (-2x) ? initiate via subtracting -2x from the two aspects of the equation 7x - 7 = 14 ? to do away with x from the main suitable suited facet 7x - 7 (+7) = 14 (+7) ? upload 7 to the two aspects 7x = 21 ? to place the consistent on the main suitable suited facet of the equation (7x)÷(7) = (21)÷(7) ? divide the two aspects via 7 x = 3 ? answer: x via itself on one facet of the equation try your artwork in case you have time. looking and fixing errors is mandatory for solid try rankings. 9(3)-7 = 2(3)+14 ? try if x=3 via putting (3) into the unique equation as x. 27 - 7 = 6 + 14 ? you ought to use a calculator for this in case you have one. 20 = 20 ? 20 does equivalent 20, so x=3 is genuine
