Simplifying

3x + -10 + -1x = 90


Reorder the terms:

-10 + 3x + -1x = 90


Combine like terms: 3x + -1x = 2x

-10 + 2x = 90


Solving

-10 + 2x = 90


Solving for variable 'x'.


Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.


Add '10' to each side of the equation.

-10 + 10 + 2x = 90 + 10


Combine like terms: -10 + 10 = 0

0 + 2x = 90 + 10

2x = 90 + 10


Combine like terms: 90 + 10 = 100

2x = 100


Divide each side by '2'.

x = 50


Simplifying

x = 50
