if you meant x-5=3, the answer is 8. add 5 to both sides to cancel out one. you have a typo

proper sum
x-5=3
x=3+5(signs change)

Without an equality sign the given product problem is not an equation.
Set up the equation and solve: x + 5 = -13 (next subtract 5 from each side of the equation to solve for x) x = -18
Check your work by substituting the answer, 5, into the equation for x. Does 2 + 5 = 7? Yes, so the correct answer is x = 5.
To solve the equation f(x) = 2x-5, set f(x) equal to zero and solve for x. In this case, you have 2x-5 = 0. Add 5 to both sides of the equation to isolate the x term, giving you 2x = 5. Finally, divide both sides by 2 to solve for x, which gives x = 5/2 or x = 2.5.
