QUESTION:

solve [x-5] = 2....

ANSWER:

solve [x-5] = 2....

that means you have to find out the value of the variable 'x' in the given equation.

x-5 = 2
For that retain the x term in one side and shift all the other terms( here we have only constat terms) to the other side.

For that add 5 to both sides of the equation, because here in the equation we have -5. ( if it is +5, we have to subtract 5 from both sides.)

==> x - 5 + 5 = 2 + 5

==> x = 7

Thus we got the value of x as 7.

To check your answer, put the value x = 7 in the given equation and see whether it satisfies the equation or not.

Hope you understood.
