The given equation is


2x-3=9

To solve this equation we have to isolate x on one side and put the numbers on the other side

To do that we will add 3 to each side to move 3 from the left side to the right side


2x-3+3=9+3

Simplify it


\begin{gathered} 2x+0=12 \\ 2x=12 \end{gathered}

Now we need to move 2 from the left side to the right side, then

Divide both sides by 2


\begin{gathered} (2x)/(2)=(12)/(2) \\ x=6 \end{gathered}

Then the solution of the equation is

x = 6
