Evaluate

2 x - 5 x - 3 = 0

Subtract the terms

More Steps

- 3 x - 3 = 0

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

- 3 x = 0 + 3

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

- 3 x = 3

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

3 x = - 3

Divide both sides

\frac{3 x}{3} = \frac{- 3}{3}

Divide the numbers

x = \frac{- 3}{3}
