Explain how to solve the equation 2x – 3 = x + 2
4 answers
Add 3 to both sides and subtract x from both sides. That will leave you with the answer.
2x-3=x+2
2x-3+3=x+2+3
x=1
2x-3+3=x+2+3
x=1
If indeed the question is EXPLAIN how to solve the equation then you will need to explain what you are doing as a series of sentences.
As drwis and Hannah have shown the equation is easy to solve, but I suspect the question setter is trying to get you to explain the steps.
