2x = 5 x = 2.5
2x + 5 = 13 2x = 8 2x/2 = 8/2 x=4
If your question was 2X + 5 =10. X equals what? Then X=2.5
Because all the terms have been divided by -1
6x - 8 + 2x - 5 = 7 - 2x ?
If 5 x equals 9 plus 2x then x equals?
y=2x-4 y=2x-5 y=1 1=2x-4 -2x = -5 x=2/5 the solution is (x,y) = (2/5,1)
2x + 5 = 31 2x = 31 - 5 = 26 x = 13
-3x + (-18) = 2x + 7 +18 +18 -3x = 2x +25 -2x -2x -5x = 25 ----- ----- -5 -5 x=-5 *------- equals a division line
2x - 5 = 11 2x = 11 + 5 2x = 16 2x /2 = 16 /2 x = 8
4x - 5 + 2x = 37
If: -2x+5 = -17 Then: x = 11
