Answer:
x = 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
to find the value of
2x + 3 - 2 = 5
the first approach to this kind of question is to collect the like terms which is
2x = 5 +2 - 3
we have,
2x = 7 - 3
2x = 4
divide both sides by 2
we have; 2x/2 = 4/ 2
x = 2.
to check if your answer is correct put the value of x into the question
2x + 3 - 2 = 5
we have
2(2) + 3 - 2 = 5
4 + 3 - 2 = 5
7 - 2 = 5
5 = 5.................. proved
