x=31+2

Explanation:

Solving equations is the isolation of the variable:

Since we already have x on the left side, leave it that way.

Add x2 to both sides to get x+x2=3

The left hand side can be simplified by taking a factor of x out:

(1+2)x=3

Now just divide both sides by (1+2)

Therefore, x=31+2
