Question 643897
{{{3x+2+x=3-5}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{4x+2=3-5}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{4x+2=-2}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{4x=-2-2}}} Subtract {{{2}}} from both sides.



{{{4x=-4}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x=(-4)/(4)}}} Divide both sides by {{{4}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=-1}}} Reduce.
