The solution of 3x+5=x+9 is

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

•Original Expression;

3x+5=x+9

•Group like terms;

3x-x=9-5

•Simplify

3x-x

=2x

Then

9-5

=4

Which is going to be;

2x=4

•Divide both sides by 2 to find x

4 can be divided by 2 two times so;

x=2

answer: 2x + 2 − 2 = 10 − 2; subtraction property of equality

given: in an auditorium, there are 22 seats in the first row and 28 seats in the second row.

thus first term=

second term=

the number of seats in a row continues to increase by 6 with each additional row.

⇒d= 6

a) given formula :
