Answer:

x = 4

x = 6

x = 7/2

Explanation:

Solve 5x + 2 = 22:

5x+2-2=22-2 (subtract 2 from both sides)

5x=20

x=4

Solve 2x-5=7

2x-5+5=7+5 (add 5 to both sides)

2x=12

x=6

Solve 2x+5=12

2x+5-5=12-5 (subtract 5 from both sides)

2x=7

x= 7/2

Solve 5x + 2 = 22

=> 5x + 2 = 22

=> 5x = 22 – 2

=> 5x = 20

=> x = 20/5

=> x = 4

Solve 2x-5=7

=> 2x - 5 = 7

=> 2x = 7+5

=> 2x = 12

=> x = 12/2

=> x = 6

Solve 2x+5=12

=> 2x + 5 = 12

=> 2x = 12-5

=> 2x = 7

=> x = 7/2
