5\pi -3x-2\pi =7\pi +2x
To find the opposite of 3x+2\pi , find the opposite of each term.
3\pi -3x=7\pi +2x
Combine 5\pi and -2\pi to get 3\pi .
3\pi -3x-2x=7\pi
Subtract 2x from both sides.
3\pi -5x=7\pi
Combine -3x and -2x to get -5x.
-5x=7\pi -3\pi
Subtract 3\pi from both sides.
-5x=4\pi
Combine 7\pi and -3\pi to get 4\pi .
\frac{-5x}{-5}=\frac{4\pi }{-5}
Divide both sides by -5.
x=\frac{4\pi }{-5}
Dividing by -5 undoes the multiplication by -5.
x=-\frac{4\pi }{5}
Divide 4\pi by -5.
