Answer:

x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Nice set up. It's very clear.

Multiply both sides by 3

3(x-2)

===== = 5 *3

  3

Cancel the 3 on the left. Combine the right.

x - 2 = 15

Add 2

x - 2 + 2 = 15 + 2

x = 17

==============

(17 - 2) / 3

15/3

5  

The right hand side is also 5

svetoff [14.1K]
If the length of the entire screwdriver is 19cm, and the handle is 5cm, subtract the length of the handle from the total length to find the length of the top of the screwdriver.
19 - 5 = 14
The top of the screwdriver is 14cm long.
