How do you solve for x in a math question like this 5+4x=54-3x?

To solve for x, first you need to isolate all x terms on the same side so:

you start with 5 + 4x = 54 - 3x

subtract 5 from both sides to get 5 onto the left side

now you should have 4x = 49 - 3x

now add 3x to both sides to get 3x onto the right side

now you should have 7x = 49

now that you have your x on one side you can solve this like a regular one step equation and divide both sides by 7

this leads you to your answer of x = 7

hope this helps!
