The solution is x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is a linear equation so it will have only one equation
Given equation is:
[tex]5x+3=2x+15[/tex]
Subtraction property of equality:
[tex]5x+3-3 = 2x+15-3\\5x = 2x+12[/tex]
Subtraction property of equality:
[tex]5x-2x = 2x-2x+12\\3x = 12[/tex]
Division Property of Equality:
[tex]\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{12}{3}\\x = 4[/tex]
Hence,
The solution is x = 4
