The equation 2x + 3 = 5 is modeled below +

A
Х

(+
(+
What is the first step in finding the value of x?
Add 3 to each side of the model
Subtract 3 from each side of the model
Add 5 to each side of the model
Subtract 5 from each side of the model

The first step will be subtract 3 from each side of the model.

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.

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

The value of x is 1.

answer: 140

step-by-step explanation:

so just add all then it will be your answer but i am not pretty sur eif it is but hope this i am here to people

x = -4

step-by-step explanation:

- 20 - 4(x + 3) = 4x

=> -20 - 4x - 12 = 4x

=> - 32 -4x = 4x

=> -32 = 4x + 4x

=> - 32 = 8x

=> -32/8 = x

=> -4 = x
