Step-by-step explanation:
The above word problem can be transformed into Mathematical form as given below:
[tex]2x + 3 = x + 2 \\ \\ \therefore \: 2x - x = 2 - 3 \\ \\ \huge \red {\boxed{ \therefore \:x = - 1}}[/tex]
Answer:
n = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Put words into an expression
the sum of twice a number and 3 is equal to the sum of the number and 2
2n + 3 = n + 2
Step 2: Solve for n
2n + 3 - n - 3 = n + 2 - n - 3
n = -1
Answer: n = -1
