Solution for 2x-(a+b)=x+(a+b) equation:


Simplifying
2x + -1(a + b) = x + (a + b)
2x + (a * -1 + b * -1) = x + (a + b)
2x + (-1a + -1b) = x + (a + b)

Reorder the terms:
-1a + -1b + 2x = x + (a + b)

Remove parenthesis around (a + b)
-1a + -1b + 2x = x + a + b

Reorder the terms:
-1a + -1b + 2x = a + b + x

Solving
-1a + -1b + 2x = a + b + x

Solving for variable 'a'.

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

Add '-1a' to each side of the equation.
-1a + -1b + -1a + 2x = a + b + -1a + x

Reorder the terms:
-1a + -1a + -1b + 2x = a + b + -1a + x

Combine like terms: -1a + -1a = -2a
-2a + -1b + 2x = a + b + -1a + x

Reorder the terms:
-2a + -1b + 2x = a + -1a + b + x

Combine like terms: a + -1a = 0
-2a + -1b + 2x = 0 + b + x
-2a + -1b + 2x = b + x

Add 'b' to each side of the equation.
-2a + -1b + b + 2x = b + b + x

Combine like terms: -1b + b = 0
-2a + 0 + 2x = b + b + x
-2a + 2x = b + b + x

Combine like terms: b + b = 2b
-2a + 2x = 2b + x

Add '-2x' to each side of the equation.
-2a + 2x + -2x = 2b + x + -2x

Combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0
-2a + 0 = 2b + x + -2x
-2a = 2b + x + -2x

Combine like terms: x + -2x = -1x
-2a = 2b + -1x

Divide each side by '-2'.
a = -1b + 0.5x

Simplifying
a = -1b + 0.5x
