Answer 2

Answer:

23

Step-by-step explanation:

When I was first introduced to algebra, One thing that had me stumped for the longest time is terms like "2x".  This is because nobody explained to me that saying "2x" and similar terms implies a multiplication.  so "2x" actually means "2 × x".  I only mention this because I thought maybe it would help.

To solve it then, all we need to do then is think of "x" as meaning five, and it being multiplied by 2

We're given this:

$2x + 13$

which you can also read as this:

$2 \times x + 13$

We're told x equals five, so we can say:

$2 \times 5 + 13$

Remember when solving this, that multiplication and division always come before addition and subtraction, so let's do the multiplication:

$10 + 13$

and then add it up:

$23$

So the final answer is twenty-three.
