Answer 2

Answer:

Subtract

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve equations, we have to get x by itself. To do this, we must preform the opposite of what is being done to the equation. Keep in mind, everything must be done to both sides of the equation.

x+15=27

15 is being added onto x. The opposite of addition is subtraction. Therefore, we must subtract 15 from both sides

x+15-15=27-15

x=27-15

x=12
