Verified Answer :

3x - 5 = 2   Add 5 to both sides
     3x = 7   Divide both sides by 3
       x = \(\frac{7}{3}\)

The answer is B. \(\frac{7}{3}\) .

add 5 to the two and you get 7... because you use inverse opperations to make the 5 go a way you would have to add the 5. so now you will have the following...

3x=7 
to get the x alone you have to divide both sides by 3
so x=7/3
