Question

2(3x + 5) = 22 what is X?

Answer 1

First divide both sides by 2 so that we can get rid of the parentheses, so we get
$(3x + 5) = 11$
now subtract 5 from both sides
$3x = 6$
then finally we want x alone so we'll divide both sides by 3 and get our final answer!
$x = 2$

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2(3x + 5) = 22

6x + 10 = 22

6x = 12

x = 2
