Greetings!

Answer:

x > 1

Explanation:

Firstly, the +3 must be moved over to the other side, making it a -3:

2x > 5 - 3

2x > 2

Then, divide both sides by two to get 1x:

x > 1


Hope this helps!

Hi there!

Answer:

X>1

*The answer must have a positive sign and greater than symbol.*

Explanation:

First, you subtract by 3 from both sides of an equation.


2x+3-3>5-3

Then, you subtract by the numbers from left to right.


5-3=2


2x>2

You can also divide by 2 from both sides of an equation.


(2x)/(2)>(2)/(2)

Finally, you divide by the numbers from left to right.


2/2=1

Final answer is x>1

I hope this helps you!

Have a nice day! :)
