Solve this equation.​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve an equation for a variable, we need to isolate (get the variable alone on one side)

(the order of the following was determined by PEMDAS)

5x + 5 = 5 (10 ÷ 5)   [simplify inside parentheses]

5x + 5 = 5 (2)

5x + 5 = 10

     - 5    -5             [subtract 5 from both sides to isolate x]

5x = 5

÷5    ÷5     [divide both sides to get x]

x = 1

hope this helps!!

Answer 2

5x + 5 = 5*(10/5)
x = 1
