Math Problem Statement

4x-7=3x+2

Solution

Let's solve the equation 4x7=3x+24x - 7 = 3x + 2.

Step 1: Move all the terms involving xx to one side.

Subtract 3x3x from both sides: 4x3x7=24x - 3x - 7 = 2 This simplifies to: x7=2x - 7 = 2

Step 2: Move the constant terms to the other side.

Add 7 to both sides: x=2+7x = 2 + 7 This simplifies to: x=9x = 9

Final Answer:

x=9x = 9
