Solve (x+36)+(x+25)=7x

$$( x + 36 ) + ( x + 25 ) = 7 x$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{61}{5} = 12\frac{1}{5} = 12.2$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Combine x and x to get 2x.

$$2x+36+25=7x$$

Add 36 and 25 to get 61.

$$2x+61=7x$$

Subtract 7x from both sides.

$$2x+61-7x=0$$

Combine 2x and -7x to get -5x.

$$-5x+61=0$$

Subtract 61 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.

$$-5x=-61$$

Divide both sides by -5.

$$x=\frac{-61}{-5}$$

Fraction \frac{-61}{-5} can be simplified to \frac{61}{5} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.

$$x=\frac{61}{5}$$
