Solve for X:3+x−2=7−3 3 + x - 2 = 7 - 3 3+x−2=7−3
First, simplify both sides of the equation:
Left side: 3+x−2=1+x 3 + x - 2 = 1 + x 3+x−2=1+x
Right side: 7−3=4 7 - 3 = 4 7−3=4
So the equation becomes:
1+x=4 1 + x = 4 1+x=4
Next, isolate x x x by subtracting 1 from both sides:
1+x−1=4−1 1 + x - 1 = 4 - 1 1+x−1=4−1
This simplifies to:
x=3 x = 3 x=3
