Evaluate -3x+9-2x=-12-5x

$- 3 x + 9 - 2 x = - 12 - 5 x$

Step 1

Subtract $2 x$ from $- 3 x$ .

$- 5 x + 9 = - 12 - 5 x$

Step 2

Move all terms containing $x$ to the left side of the equation.

Add $5 x$ to both sides of the equation.

$- 5 x + 9 + 5 x = - 12$

Combine the opposite terms in $- 5 x + 9 + 5 x$ .

Add $- 5 x$ and $5 x$ .

$0 + 9 = - 12$

Add $0$ and $9$ .

$9 = - 12$

Step 3

Since $9 \neq - 12$ , there are no solutions.

No solution
