What is 5(x+3)= 7x+3 ? What does it equal ?

Question

I really need this answer so please tell me the answer and show how you came up with the answer. Thankz

Answer 1

You just need to expand the left side, combine like terms, and solve algebraically. Use the distributive property to expand 5(x + 3) into 5x + 5*3 = 5x + 15. Then you have 5x + 15 = 7x + 3. If you subtract 3 from both sides and then also subtract 5x from both sides, you'll have 12 = 2x. Divide both sides by 2 to get the final answer, x = 6. The procedure is shown step-by-step below.

5x + 15 = 7x + 3
12 = 2x
x = 6

Answer 2

X= 6 this is what u do:
times out the bracket so u get 5x+15
then u get the like terms on each side so u get 15-3 = 7x-5x
then do the calculations so u get 12 = 2x
then to get x by it self to have to take the 2 over the which makes 12 / 2 = x
so x is = 6 :) hope it helps !!!!!!

Answer 3

5(x+3) = 5x + 15. You know how to do that right? Multiply 5 and x, then multiply 5 and 3. Whatever sign is there in the brackets will be the sign you put between the two terms which you get.
5x + 15 = 7x +3
Bring all the terms with x to the left hand side(LHS) and the others to the Right hand side(RHS). When you shift the terms from one side to the other, the sign changes. If it is + it becomes -. If it's on the numerator on one side, it becomes denominator if you shift it to the other and vice versa.
Therefore, 5x-7x = 3 - 15
-2x = -12
There's - sign on both the sides and you can just cancel them out and it becomes +
2x=12
x= 6

Answer 4

5(x+3) = 7x + 3

5x + 15 = 7x + 3 :distribute the 5 for (x+3)

15-3 = 7x - 5x : now, combining like terms

12= 2x : divide 12 by 2 to get the value of x.

x= 6 ...........ans.

by checking it out:

5(x+3) = 7x + 3 :substitute the value of x:

5(6 + 3) = 7(6) + 3

30 + 15 = 42 + 3

45 = 45 ...it's correct.

LHS = RHS

Answer 5

Ok:
5(x+3)=7x+3 First you do distributive property with the five. And get:

5x+15= 7x+3 Next you want all the X's on one side so you subtract 5x from both sides.

15= 2x+3 Now you subtract 3 from both sides because you want X to be alone.

12= 2x Then you divide each side by 2 so X is alone.

6=x is the answer.

Answer 6

6

Answer 7

It took me like 1 min. to find the answer. Ok, first you have 5(x+3)=7x+3 right?
then you use the distributive property and thats
5x+15=7x+3
after that you combine terms so you do
5x+15=7x+3
-5x -5x
which equals
15=2x+3
then you subtract three from both sides
15=2x+3
-3 -3
and that equals
12=2x
then you divide both sides by 2
12=2x
/2 /2
and x=6!

Answer 8

5x + 15 = 7x + 3
15 - 3 = 7x - 5x
12 = 2x
x = 6
Check:-
5 x 6 + 15 = 45
7 x 6 + 3 = 45

Answer 9

5(x+3)= 7x+3
5*x + 5*3 = 7*x + 3
5x+15= 7x+3

subtract 5x from each side
15=2x+3
subtract 3 from each side
12=2x
divide 2 from each side
6=x

Answer 10

5(x+3)=7x+3
5x+15=7x+3
subtract 5x from both sides to get x's on same side
15=2x+3
subtract 3 from both sides to get full numbers on same side
12=2x
divide out 2 to get x
x=6

check:
5(6)+15=7(6)+3
30+15=42+3
45=45 your answer is correct

Getting the answer is easy but it took forever to write it out for me.
