Which number is a solution to x+ 32=5+4x

Question

Which number is a solunion to x+32=5+4x

Answer 1

We first need to get all our x's to the same side.

 

Subtract 1x from each side.

 

x + 32 = 5 + 4x

-x                 -x

 

Now 32 = 5 + 3x

 

Now that x is in one place, we can work on getting alone.

 

Subtract 5 from both sides to get

 

27 = 3x

 

Lastly, divide both sides by 3 and you will have your answer
