Answer:
[tex]x = 4[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]5x + 2 = 22[/tex]
[tex]5x = 20[/tex]
[tex]x = 4[/tex]
[tex]\small\bold{5x + 2 = 22 }[/tex]
Subtract 2 from 22 :
[tex]\small\bold{ 5x + 2 = 22}[/tex]
[tex]\small\bold{5x = 22 - 2 }[/tex]
Simplify :
[tex]\small\bold{5x = 20 }[/tex]
Now , Divide 5x by 20 :
[tex]\small\bold{ \frac{5x}{20}}[/tex]
[tex]\small\bold{x = 4 }[/tex]
