To answer this question, we need to isolate x. For this, we can proceed as follows:

1. Subtract 1 from both sides of the equation:


2x+1-1=7-1\Rightarrow2x=6

2. Divide by two to both sides of the equation:


(2x)/(2)=(6)/(2)\Rightarrow x=3

Therefore, the value for x = 3. We can check this result, if we substitute this value in the original euq
