Answer:

X=36

Explanation:

Once you set up the equation,you add the 126 from the other side.then you do 162+126 and you get 288.then you subtract the 5x from the 13x.you get 8x.divide 8 by both sides and you should get x=36

I hope this helps out!

x=36
you add 126 to 162 making it 288, then you minus 5 out of 13 making it 8. 288/8 =36
