You would set up an equation like
2x + 500 = 2800
And then you would solve for x. So, you subtract 500 from both sides
2x = 2300
And then you know that 2300 covers two months of rent so you must divide that by two to get one month of rent
X = 1150

500 + 2x = 2800
solve for x
x=1500
The month's rent is $1,150.
