SOLVE FOR X

AX+B=C(X-A)
Isolate X on one side
AX+B=CX-CA
move the CX to the left and B to the right
AX-CX=-CA-B
factor out X, factor out a minus sign on the right
X(A-C)= -(CA+B)
Divide both sides by (A-C)
X=-(CA+B)/(A-C)
---------------
check. Let A=3 B=4 C=2
3X+4=2(X-3)
3X=2X-6-4=2X-10
X=-10
Put it into above
X=-(2*3+4)/(1)=-10
