Answer:
See Explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
_x + _ = _x + _
Required
Fill in the gap using 1 to 9 to give a result close to 0
First, you have to determine what kind of numbers that are close to 0;
In this case, I'll work with -0.4 to 0.4 because the number in this range approximate to 0;
Next, is to fill in the gaps using trial by error method
5x + 2 = 2x + 3
