Answer: b

Explanation:

Okay, so what you need to do is plug in the 5 for x in all equations. once you do that, then you’ll see if the statement makes sense.

A would be= 2 + 5 = 3 and that would be 7=3 which it doesn’t

B would be 3(5)=15 and that would be 15=15

C would be 5/2=10 and thats not true because that would be 2.5=10

And lastly D would be 5-7=12 and that's nit true because that would be -2=12 and that's not true
