(x+2)-5=b(x-3)

Solution

(x + 2) - 5 = b (x - 3)

Solution

x = 3; b \neq = 1

Solution steps

(x + 2) - 5 = b (x - 3)

Remove parentheses:

(a) = a

x + 2 - 5 = b (x - 3)

Add/Subtract the numbers:

2 - 5 = - 3

x - 3 = b (x - 3)

Expand

b (x - 3) : b x - 3 b

x - 3 = b x - 3 b

Move

3

to the right side

x = b x - 3 b + 3

Move

b x

to the left side

x - b x = - 3 b + 3

Factor

x - b x : x (1 - b)

x (1 - b) = - 3 b + 3

Divide both sides by

1 - b; b \neq = 1

x = 3; b \neq = 1
