To find the sum of the given expressions \(2x + 3x + 5\), we can first combine the like terms:
1. Combine \(2x\) and \(3x\):
\[
2x + 3x = 5x
\]
2. Now add the constant \(5\):
\[
5x + 5
\]
Thus, the final expression is:
\[
5x + 5
\]
Since this expression is not a rational expression, let's clarify that we are simply combining the terms. However, if we were to express this as a fraction, it could be written as:
\[
\frac{5x + 5}{1}
\]
