Help! x+3=5

OpenStudy (shamil98):

x + 3 = 5 -3 -3 x = 2

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

what is your work, shamil? what do you do? add 3 to both sides?

OpenStudy (shamil98):

You want to isolate x , by undoing everything that's done to it. In this case 3 is added to x, so you subtract 3 from both sides.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

This is a horrible joke, sorry!

OpenStudy (shamil98):

oh lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x=5-3 5-3=x x=5-3 x+3=5 5=x+3 5-x=3 -x=3-5 -x=-2 Multiply the equation by -1 x=2 2=x x=2

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

I se, so the answer is -2i sqrt 7 Makes sense!

OpenStudy (anonymous):
