3x+7=x - 15 i dont know how to solve it
the answer is -11 but i dont know how to get to that

Answers

3x + 7 = x - 15

First, make sure to subtract x from both sides.
3x + 7 - x = -15
Second, simplify 3x - x to get 2x, and then keep the 7.
2x + 7 = -15
Third, subtract 7 from both sides. 
2x = -15 - 7
Fourth, simplify -15 - 7 to get -22.
2x = -22
Fifth, take the 2 and divide both sides by it, keeping the x by itself.
x = - (22)/(2)
Sixth, since 11 goes into 2 to get 22, simplify the fraction to 11.
x = -11

Answer: x = -11
