Solve Linear Equation: Finding X in 5 + x - 3 = 2 + 1

Question

Solve for X:

5+x−3=2+1 5 + x - 3 = 2 + 1

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve 5+x−3=2+1 5 + x - 3 = 2 + 1 , we first simplify both sides:

Left side:
5−3+x=2+x 5 - 3 + x = 2 + x

Right side:
2+1=3 2 + 1 = 3

Now the equation is 2+x=3 2 + x = 3 .

Subtract 2 from both sides:
x=3−2 x = 3 - 2

So, x=1 x = 1 .
