Question

Solve the equation for x.

x + 13 = 22​

Answer 1

x + -13 = 22

Reorder the terms:

-13 + x = 22

Solving

-13 + x = 22

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '13' to each side of the equation.

-13 + 13 + x = 22 + 13

Combine like terms: -13 + 13 = 0

0 + x = 22 + 13

x = 22 + 13

Combine like terms: 22 + 13 = 35

x = 35

Simplifying

x = 35
