Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]5x+3 = 2x -3 \\\\\implies 5x -2x = -3 -3\\\\\implies 3x = -6\\\\\implies x = -\dfrac 63 =-2[/tex]

hello!

Let's solve this equation.

Step 1

Move the numbers to the right:-

5x=2x-3-3

Step 2

Move the x's to the left

5x-2x=-3-3

Notice I use the opposite operation :)

Step 3

Combine like terms

3x=-6x

Step 4

Divide both sides by 3

x=-2

That's the value of x that makes the equation true.
