Solve the equation for x. 3x - 5x+ 5 = 20

Hey there!

3x - 5x + 5 = 20

• First COMBINE your LIKE TERMS

(3x - 5x) + (5) = 20

3x - 5x = -2x

• NEW EQUATION:

-2x + 5 = 20

• SUBTRACT by 5 on BOTH SIDES

Like: -2x + 5 - 5 = 20 - 5

Cancel out: 5 - 5 because that gives you a 0

Keep; 20 - 5 because it helps us solve for your x

**20 - 5 = 15**

• NEW EQUATION:

-2x = 15

• DIVIDE by -2 on BOTH SIDES

2x/-2 = 15/-2

Cancel out: -2x/-2 because that gives you 1

Keep: 15/-2 because it helps us solve for x (it also gives the value of “x”)

**AFTER SOLVING ABOVE WE FOUND OUR ANSWER**

x = -15/2 ✅

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

i can you with this question sweetie!

step-by-step explanation:

when rotating a figure 180 degrees, imagine that you are able to take the figure and turn it clockwise or counterclockwise around a center point. to rotate a figure 180 degrees, you will need to apply the rule (x, y) → (-x, -y). start by using a coordinate grid with coordinates for each vertex of the figure. the center point of the coordinate grid is located at (0, 0), which is what you will rotate the figure around. write down the original coordinates of the shape you are going to rotate. then, apply the rule. for example, coordinate (1, 2) becomes (-1, -2). another example would be, coordinate (-4, -2) becoming (4, 2). after you change each original coordinate to the rotated coordinate, you will draw your new figure.
