X+5=15
-5 -5
X=10
Hope this helps!!
For these problems you have to use PEMDAS so for problem 15 you would do the parentheses first, (21-3) you get 18 and then exponents, 3^2, you get 9, no multiplication but there is division so take your answers, 18 and 9 and divide them, you get 2, so the answer to 15 is 2.
Answer:
x = 3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
15(1/2) = 7.5
7.5+6 =13.5
subtract 17 and divide by -1 to isolate x 13.5-17/-1
x = 3.5
