Question

2x+5=3x+2 what does x equal

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 3

Explanation:

2x + 5 = 3x + 2

2x-3x = 2-5

-1x = -3

x = -3 ÷ ( -1 )

x = 3

Answer 2

x=3

Explanation:

Step 1: Subtract 3x from both sides.

2x+5−3x=3x+2−3x

−x+5=2

Step 2: Subtract 5 from both sides.

−x+5−5=2−5

−x=−3

Step 3: Divide both sides by -1.

−x-1=- 3- 1

x=3

Answer:

x=3
