Answer:


x = (35)/(2)

Explanation:


(2x)/(7) -3=2


(2x)/(7) = 2 + 3


(2x)/(7) = 5


x = (7)/(2) * 5


x = (35)/(2)

Decimal Form:


x = 17.5

Mixed Number Form:


x = 17 (1)/(2)

Hope it is helpful...

Answer:

35/2 or 17.5

Explanation:

2x / 7 - 3 = 2

2x / 7 - 3 + 3 = 2 + 3

2x / 7 = 5

(2x /7) x 7 = 5 x 7

2x = 35

x = 35/2 or 17.5
