Hey there!
2x + 19 = 27
SUBTRACT by 19 to BOTH SIDES
2x + 19 – 19 = 27 – 19
Cancel out: 19 – 19 because that gives you 0
KEEP: 27 – 19 because that gives you the value of 8
New EQUATION: 2x = 8
DIVIDE by 2 to BOTH SIDES
2x/2 = 8/2
CANCEL out: 2/2 because that gives you 1
KEEP: 8/2 because that gives you the value of x
“8/2 = x”
Answer: x = 4 ☑️
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
