Trying to help my kid with math pls help me linear equation 7x=5+5x

OpenStudy (abb0t):

Are you solving for x? If so, 1. Subtract the 5x from the 7x to get: 2. Divide 5 by the answer you got from step 1 to get 'x"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes solving for x

OpenStudy (abb0t):

Yes, then follow those steps. You should be able to isolate x.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2.5 is x?

OpenStudy (abb0t):

if 2.5 is the answer for \[\frac{ 5 }{ 2 }\] then yes, correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

subtract 5x from EACH side to get 2x = 5 then to isolate X divide EACH side by two. x = 5/2
