Answer:
[tex]\sf{x=\dfrac{7}{2}=3.5 }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
It is necessary to isolate the term of x from both sides in order to solve this problem.
First, subtract by 5 from both sides.
2x+5=12
[tex]\sf{2x+5-5=12-5}[/tex]
Solve.
[tex]\sf{12-5=7}[/tex]
2x=7
Divide by 2 from both sides.
2x/2=7/2
Solve.
Dividing is another option.
7/2=3.5
So, the final answer is 7/2=3.5.
I hope this helps you! Please let me know if my answer is wrong.
