x + 5 - 3 (x + 1) - 2 x = 3

x = - \frac{1}{4}

Solution steps

x + 5 - 3 (x + 1) - 2 x = 3

Group like terms

x - 2 x - 3 (x + 1) + 5 = 3

Add similar elements:

x - 2 x = - x

- x - 3 (x + 1) + 5 = 3

Move

5

to the right side

- x - 3 (x + 1) = - 2

Expand

- 3 (x + 1) : - 3 x - 3

- x - 3 x - 3 = - 2

Add similar elements:

- x - 3 x = - 4 x

- 4 x - 3 = - 2

Move

3

to the right side

- 4 x = 1

Divide both sides by

- 4

x = - \frac{1}{4}

\frac{x + 4}{7} + \frac{x - 8}{2} = 3

- \frac{1}{2} (6 a - 6) - 27 = - 3

a, - f + a = 3

(3 x + 17) + (\frac{1}{2} x - 5) = 180

x, x - 7 y + 39 = 0
