Answer:
X=20
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
63−x=2x+3
63+−x=2x+3
−x+63=2x+3
Step 2: Subtract 2x from both sides.
−x+63−2x=2x+3−2x
−3x+63=3
Step 3: Subtract 63 from both sides.
−3x+63−63=3−63
−3x=−60
Step 4: Divide both sides by -3.
-3x/-3= -60/-3
Answer:
63 - x = 2x +3
Add x to both sides of the equation. The x on the left side would cancel out and on the right side add the x to 2x.
63 = 3x + 3
Now subtract 3 from both sides. The 3 on the right side would cancel out.
60 = 3x
Divide both sides by 3. The 3 with x would cancel out.
x = 20
