First, we need to distribute the negative sign in the equation:
96 - x + 47 = 28
Combine like terms:
96 + 47 - x = 28143 - x = 28
Now, isolate the variable x by subtracting 143 from both sides:
143 - 143 - x = 28 - 143-x = -115
Finally, multiply both sides by -1 to solve for x:
x = 115
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 115.

-x = -115
Finally, multiply both sides by -1 to solve for x:
x = 115
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 115.
