Simplifying 2x + 5 = 27

Reorder the terms: 5 + 2x = 27

Solving 5 + 2x = 27


Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-5' to each side of the equation. 5 + -5 + 2x = 27 + -5


Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0
0 + 2x = 27 + -5
2x = 27 + -5

Combine like terms: 27 + -5 = 22
2x = 22

Divide each side by '2'.
x = 11

Simplifying x = 11

Your answer is 11 or B
