What is the solution to the equation?

3q + 5 = –2q + 20
  A. q = 3   B. q = 5   C. q = 15   D. q = 25



Answer :

[tex] 3q + 5 = -2q + 20 [/tex]

add 2q to both sides.

[tex] 5q + 5 = 20 [/tex]

subtract 5 to both sides.

[tex] 5q = 15 [/tex]

divide 5 to both sides.

[tex] q = \frac{15}{5} [/tex]

the answer is: [tex]q = 3[/tex]
