1) Simplify the problem

This involves combining variables

2-5=-3

Now that is -3+2x= 5x+15

2) Find the hidden variable.

Now that the problem is in order you can find the hidden variable of x.

So think what number in place of x makes this equation true?

There are may ways you can solve for x, including the substitution method.

The first step i'd take is distributing the right side, by multiplying everything in the parentheses by 5 , so ; 2+2x-5=5x+15

then you could gather similar or like terms on one side, by moving all the x terms to the right, and all the regular terms to the left. to do this, you do the same thing on both sides of the equation

 2 +2x -5   = 5x +15      
    -2x -15 = -2x -15

2-5-15 = 3x
