Aldo Haynes · Answer 2

Answer: x = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

he answer is - 2, because 3 - - 2 is the same as 3 + 2 due to negative addition and subtraction rules.

You can rearrange this too:

3 - x = 5 (original)

3 = 5 + x (added x to both sides)

3 - 5 = x (minus 5 from both sides.

x = - 2
