Question

2 + x = 19
what does x equal

Answer 1

it's 17 I think if I'm not mistaking

Answer 2

x = 17

Explanation:

2 + x = 19

Subtract 2 on both sides to isolate the variable

2 - 2 + x = 19 - 2

x = 17

Check

We can check by distributing the "x" with 17 since thats what we got as the value.

2 + x = 19

2 + 17 = 19

19 = 19

CORRECT

Hope this helped!
