Solve the following equation. X + 5 = 2x
Can some explain to me how to do this? I have to add one of these numbers to both sides of the equation but idk which one.

Let us check whether or not we have found out the correct value of x , by placing 5 in the place of x .

Which means :-

5 + 5 = 2 × 5

10 = 10

Hence proved that the value of x = 5 .

Therefore , 5 + 5 = 2 × 5 , ( x = 5 ) .

the answer will be
