2x - 3=5 what is the answer

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-3=5

1) Start by adding 3 to both sides: (This will cancel the 3 on the left!)

2x=8

2) Divide both sides by 2: (This will cancel the 2 on the left and isolate x!)

x=4

2x-3=5

1) Add 3 to - 3 and 5 to isolate the x

2) Divide both sides by 2

3) x=4
