Question

3x + 5 = 2x + 2 -(x-3) Pls show work too, thanks :)

Answer 1

X=0

Explanation:

1.Remove the parentheses

3x + 5 = 2x + 2 -(x-3) -> 3x+5=2x+2-x+3

2.Combine like terms

3x+5=2x+2-x+3 -> 3x+5=x+5

3.Cancel Equal Terms

3x+5=x+5 -> (subtract 5 from both sides) 3x=x

(subtract x from both sides) 3x=x -> 3x-x=0

4.Combine like terms

3x-x=0 -> 2x=0

5.Get rid 2 so divide both sides by 2

2x= 0 ->
`(2x)/(2)`=
`(0)/(2)` ->

x=0
