Okay, you can do what ajprincess says and divide both sides by three. When you do that, you get 2x + 7 = 15. Now subtract 7 from both sides. What do you get @richey?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[2x + 7 = 15\] \[2x = 8\] \[x = 4\]

@Yahoo! Please do not give the asker the answer. You should guide the asker through the question. Now @richey has the answer without even doing anything.
