Answer:
The first step will be subtract 3 from each side of the model.
Explanation:
By subtracting 3 from each side of the model, the 3 in the Right Hand Side will be cancelled, and the model will be:
2x = 5 - 3 = 2
Then the next step will be dividing 2 from each side of the model.
Solution:
2x + 3 = 5
By subtracting 3 to both the sides, we get
2x + 3 - 3 = 5 - 3
or, 2x = 2
By dividing 2 to both the sides, we get
2x/2 = 2/2
or, x = 1
Answer:
The value of x is 1.
