Answer: x = 7.0000
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a linear equation,
x - 5 = 2
In order to solve for x, we need to isolate the x
To isolate the x, we will get rid of x from left side.
5 is subtracted from x, so we will do opposite operation of subtraction.
Add 5 both the side.
x - 5 + 5 = 2 + 5
x + 0 = 7
x = 7
Write the answer in four decimal places.
So,
x = 7.0000
