Solution: 2 + 7 x + 3 - 5 x - 1 = ?
Start by combining like terms in the order that they appear. Let's break them into variables and integers.
Integers first:
2 + 3 - 1 = 4
Then, variables:
7 x - 5 x = 2 x
Add this after combining:
4 + 2 x

The easiest way to simplify this problem is to combine like terms. First we'll combine all the x terms:
2 + 7 x + 3 x - 5 x - 1 = ?
2 + 2 x + 3 - 1
Add up all the real numbers now:
2 + 2 x + 3 x - 1
2 x + 4
The simplest form of this problem is 2 x + 4
