\huge\text{Hey there!}


\huge\text{5x = x + x + x + x + x}


\huge\text{FLIP the EQUATION: x + x + x + x + x = 5x}


\underline{\underline{\huge\text{COMBINE the LIKE TERMS}}}


\huge\text{(x + x + x + x + x) = \boxed{\bf 5x}}


\underline{\underline{\underline{\huge\text{NEW EQUATION: 5x = 5x}}}}


\underline{\underline{\huge\text{SUBTRACT 5x to BOTH SIDES}}}


\huge\text{5x - 5x = 5x - 5x}


\huge\text{0 = 0}


\boxed{\boxed{\huge\text{Answer: \bf All Real Numbers Are Solutions}}}\\\huge\checkmark
