Answer

$x=1$ is the solution of the equation. Substitute $x=1$ in the original equation to check whether the solution is correct. $(1)+2=3$ is correct. So, the solution is verified to be correct.

Work Step by Step

Given that $x+2=3$ Subtract $2$ from both sides of the equation to get $x+2-2=3-2$ Or $x=1$ $x=1$ is the solution of the equation. Substitute $x=1$ in the original equation to check whether the solution is correct. $(1)+2=3$ is correct. So, the solution is verified to be correct.
