Question 4395: I am having a very hard time understanding the addition property of equality.
for axample 3x - 5 + 2x - 7 + x = 5x+2
The book says that the answer is 14, but how do you reach that point? Found 3 solutions by arunpaul, RoRo Jaxson, JimMarshall:Answer by arunpaul(104) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 3x - 5 + 2x - 7 + x = 5x+2
6x-12=5x +2 first you add 12 to both sides
6x -12 +12=5x+2 +12
6x=5x +14 then subtract 5x from both sides
6x-5x=5x-5x+14
x=14
