Solve 7(x+1)-3=+3x+2(x+1)

$$7 ( x + 1 ) - 3 = + 3 x + 2 ( x + 1 )$$

Solve for x

$$x=-1$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Use the distributive property to multiply 7 by x+1.

$$7x+7-3=3x+2\left(x+1\right)$$

Subtract 3 from 7 to get 4.

$$7x+4=3x+2\left(x+1\right)$$

Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x+1.

$$7x+4=3x+2x+2$$

Combine 3x and 2x to get 5x.

$$7x+4=5x+2$$

Subtract 5x from both sides.

$$7x+4-5x=2$$

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

$$2x+4=2$$

Subtract 4 from both sides.

$$2x=2-4$$

Subtract 4 from 2 to get -2.

$$2x=-2$$

Divide both sides by 2.

$$x=\frac{-2}{2}$$

Divide -2 by 2 to get -1.

$$x=-1$$
