To simplify 2x+3-x+5, we can first group x together,then calculate:


2x + 3 - x + 5 \\ = 2x - x + 3 - 5 \\ = x - 2
Therefore the answer is x-2.

Hope it helps!

Combine like terms. (terms that are constants and that have the same number of variables)

2x - x = x

3 + 5 = 8

x + 8 is your answer

hope this helps
