Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is :

5x-3 = 12

We have to find the value of x.

adding 3 to both sides of above equation,we get

5x-3+3 = 12+3

adding like terms,we get

5x+0 = 15

5x = 15

multiplying by 1/5 to both sides of above equation,we get

1/5(5x) =1/5(15)

x = 3 which is the answer.
