What are the steps to get the answer to -5x = -2x - 3

x=1

Step-by-step explanation

:−5x=−2x−3

Step 1: Add 2x to both sides.

−5x+2x=−2x−3+2x

−3x=−3

Step 2: Divide both sides by -3.

−3x

−3

=

−3

−3

x=1

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

first you need to separate the variables from the other numbers

-5x = -2x - 3

-3x=-3

then divide of -3

x=1

you also can then check your work:

-5(1)=-2(1)-3

-5=-2-3

-5=-5 the answer checks out!

if you use photomath right away it will give you the answer not like this app that you have to wait for people.
