Solve for x by combining like terms:

2x + 9 + 4x + 3 = 5 + x + 12

• x = 1

• x = 3

• x = –2

• x = 4

Solve for x using combine like terms:

4x + 5x + 7 – 3x + 5 = –18

Solve by combining like terms:

2x + 4 = 3x – 6

Solve for x. Distribute then Combine Like Terms: 3(2x – 5) – 4x = –19

• x = –2

• x = 2

• x = 10

• x = –11
