Question 775086: 2x + 4 = –3x + 14

We want to get the x by itself, so we can start by subtracting 4 from both sides to get
2x = -3x + 10
Then, add 3x to both sides to get
5x = 10
Divide both sides by 5 to get x= 2
For this type of problem, just think about what you can do to get x alone, starting with the easiest thing first. As long as you do everything to both sides of the equation, you are set!
