Solve 2x + 5 = 27

A.64


B.8.5

C.11

D.16

Answer 1

So how to solve for a variable (x), you have to get it by itself on one side of the = sign.
So you'd first move the 5 over by subtracting it on both sides.
Then divide both sides by 2.
Like:

2x+5=27
2x=22
x=?

Hope this helps!

Answer 3

2x+5-5=27-5
