To solve the equation 2x + 5b = m - 3 for x, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation.

Let's start by subtracting 5b from both sides of the equation:

2x + 5b - 5b = m - 3 - 5b

Simplifying, we get:

2x = m - 3 - 5b

Next, divide both sides of the equation by 2 to solve for x:

2x/2 = (m - 3 - 5b)/2

Simplifying further:

x = (m - 3 - 5b)/2

So, x is equal to (m - 3 - 5b) divided by 2.
