Answer:

1. First you have to bring "x" on one side of the equation.

2. Than bring fractions to a common denominator.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

[tex]\frac{2}{3} x + \frac{1}{2} x + 2 = 5 \\

\frac{2}{3} x + \frac{1}{2} x = 5 -2\\[/tex]

2.

[tex]\frac{4}{6} x + \frac{3}{6} x = 5 - 2\\

\frac{7}{6} x = 3\\x = \frac{18}{7}[/tex]
