Answer 1

Answer 2

Let's simplify and solve the equation step by step:

2x + 3x - 18 = x - 7x + 15

Combine like terms on each side:

5x - 18 = -6x + 15

Now, let's isolate the x term on one side by moving the constant terms to the other side:

5x + 6x = 15 + 18

11x = 33

Finally, solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by 11:

x = 33 / 11

Simplifying the division:

x = 3

So the solution to the equation is x = 3.
