    To solve for x, you first add 5 to both sides so it remains equal.

    3 + x = 2

    Then you simply subtract 3 on both sides.

    x = - 1

    Substitute your solution into the equation and see it is true.

    |3 + (-1)) - 5 = - 3

    The equation is true, therefore your answer is: x = - 1
