: How to slove 5x=(x-1)+3+2x
5x =(x-1)+3+2x (Subtract 2x from both sides of the equal sign.)
3x = x-1+3 (Subtract x to both sides of the equal sign.)
2x = -1+3 (Add negative one to postive three.)
2x = 2 (Divide both sides of the equal sign by 2.)

5X=(X-1)+3+2X
5X=X-1+3+2X
5X-X-2X=-1+3
2X=2
X=1
PROOF
5*1=(1-1)+3+2*1
5=0+3+2
5=5
