Question

Help please solve 5x+2=22

Answer 1

Salutations!


`5x+2=22`

To solve this, we need to isolate the number 2 by shifting it infront of 22. By this, we can easily solve the equation.


`5x = 22 -2`

We need to be very careful while isolating the number, make sure the operation is opposite.


`5x = 22 -2`


`5x = 20`


`x=20/5`


`x=4`

Hope I helped (:

Have a great day!

Answer 2

5x + 2 = 22
5x = 22 - 2
5x = 20
x = 20/5
x = 4
