Multiply by 10
2x+50=190-5x
190=2x+50+5x

First you get your x's on the same side so add 1/2 to 1/5 that equals 7/10x +5=19 next you -5 from 5 and -5 from 19. So then you have 7/10x=14 then you multiply 7/10 by 7/10 so it cancels out. And you multiply 7/10 to 14. That equals 9.8 as a decimal and as a fraction it reduces down to 9 and 4/5. So x =9.8 or x= 9 4/5

With an equation you must isolate x or whatever the variable is. Operations are the things used to make the difference like +,-,x,/.

A great example of this is the following

4x-12=0

First add 12 to both sides making the equation go to

4x=12

now divide 4 from both sides making

x=3
