Answer 1

`\huge \boxed{\mathfrak{Question} \downarrow}`

• 3x − 5 = 2x + 2

`\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}`

`\large \sf \: 3x - 5 = 2x + 2`

Subtract 2x from both sides.

`\large \sf \: 3x-5-2x=2`

Combine 3x and -2x to get x.

`\large \sf \: x-5=2`

Add 5 to both sides.

`\large \sf \: x=2+5`

Add 2 and 5 to get 7.

`\large{ \boxed {\bf \: x=7 }}`
