answer/ step-by-step explanation:
hi there!
the question is asking us to solve for x for the equation
x + 3 = 5
first we need to get all the numbers on to one side of the equal sign while the other side has all the variable
in order to do that we need to subtract 3 on both sides
x + 3 = 5
- 3 - 3
and that leaves us with our answer!
x = 2
i hope this helps you :) if you need anymore help or if i did something wrong then please tell me! have a good day :)
