x-3-x-2+2\left(x-1\right)-2=0
To find the opposite of x+2, find the opposite of each term.
-3-2+2\left(x-1\right)-2=0
Combine x and -x to get 0.
-5+2\left(x-1\right)-2=0
Subtract 2 from -3 to get -5.
-5+2x-2-2=0
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x-1.
-7+2x-2=0
Subtract 2 from -5 to get -7.
-9+2x=0
Subtract 2 from -7 to get -9.
2x=9
Add 9 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
x=\frac{9}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
