The given expression is x + 6 = 2x + 5.
Subtract both sides by x to get:
x - x + 6 = 2x - x + 5
6 = x + 5
Subtract both sides by 5 to get:
6 - 5 = x + 5 - 5
x = 1

Collect like terms: 2x + 3y + 3y - 5 - 6 2x + 6y - 11
How do you solve for x 2x plus 5 equals 11?
If 2x + 5 = 11, then 11 - 5 = 2x 6 = 2x 3 = x
2x plus 3y-5 plus -3y-6 equals?
2x-11
What is the solution of -2x plus 5 equals 8 and 2x plus 2x equals 6?
5 - 2x = 8 x = -1 and 1/2 4x = 6 x = 6/4 or 3/2
2x plus 1 equals 6?
2x + 1 = 6 2x = 5 x = 5/2 or 2.5
What is the answer to 2x-5 equals 3x plus 6?
2x-5=3x+6 -5-6=3x-2x -11=x x=-11

X = 6
What is 6 -2x plus 8 plus 4x equals 8?
x=5
2x plus 2x plus 2x equals 6?
x=1
What is 4 plus 2x minus-2x plus 1 equals 13 plus 6?
4+2x-2x+1=13+6 Combine like terms. (4+1=5; 2x-2x=0; 13+6=19) 5=19 This problem has no solution.
2x plus 6 equals -6 5x plus 7y equals 1?
if: 2x + 6 = -6 then: 2x = -12 x = -6 if: 5x + 7y = 1 then: 5(-6) + 7y = 1 7y = 31 y = 31/7
2x - 5 plus 5 equals 12 solve for x?
X=6
