Question

2x - 3 = -5

What is X?

Answer 1

x = -1

Explanation:

To find x, we have to get x by itself.

2x - 3 = -5

Add 3 to both sides

2x - 3 +3 = -5 +3

2x = -2

Divide by 2 to both sides

2x ÷2 = -2 ÷2

x = -1

Have a good rest of your day! :)

Answer 2

Answer: x=-1

Explanation:

2x - 3 = -5

2x=-2

x=-1
