Solve for x 2x+3(0)=5x-0

$2 x + 3 (0) = 5 x - 0$

Step 1

Simplify $2 x + 3 (0)$ .

Multiply $3$ by $0$ .

$2 x + 0 = 5 x - 0$

Add $2 x$ and $0$ .

$2 x = 5 x - 0$

Step 2

Subtract $0$ from $5 x$ .

$2 x = 5 x$

Step 3

Move all terms containing $x$ to the left side of the equation.

Subtract $5 x$ from both sides of the equation.

$2 x - 5 x = 0$

Subtract $5 x$ from $2 x$ .

$- 3 x = 0$

Step 4

Divide each term in $- 3 x = 0$ by $- 3$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $- 3 x = 0$ by $- 3$ .

$\frac{- 3 x}{- 3} = \frac{0}{- 3}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $- 3$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{- 3 x}{- 3} = \frac{0}{- 3}$

Divide $x$ by $1$ .

$x = \frac{0}{- 3}$

Simplify the right side.

Divide $0$ by $- 3$ .

$x = 0$
