Answer:
Simplifying
2x + 5 = 5x + 3
Reorder the terms:
5 + 2x = 5x + 3
Reorder the terms:
5 + 2x = 3 + 5x
Solving
5 + 2x = 3 + 5x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-5x' to each side of the equation.
5 + 2x + -5x = 3 + 5x + -5x
Combine like terms: 2x + -5x = -3x
5 + -3x = 3 + 5x + -5x
Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0
5 + -3x = 3 + 0
5 + -3x = 3
Add '-5' to each side of the equation.
5 + -5 + -3x = 3 + -5
Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0
0 + -3x = 3 + -5
-3x = 3 + -5
Combine like terms: 3 + -5 = -2
-3x = -2
Divide each side by '-3'.
x = 0.6666666667
Simplifying
x = 0.6666666667
