Respuesta :

D.) x = 5, because when you plug five in for x, 5 + 5 = 10 is correct.

Hey there!

            [tex]\bold{x+5=10}[/tex]

  1. [tex]\bold{A.)x=2}[/tex]
  2. [tex]\bold{B.)x=3}[/tex]
  3. [tex]\bold{C.)x=4}[/tex]
  4. [tex]\bold{D.)x=5}[/tex]

Okay, so first we have to do the OPPOSITE of [tex]\bold{addition}[/tex] (which is [tex]\bold{subtraction}[/tex])

So, [tex]\bold{subtract}[/tex] by [tex]\bold{5}[/tex] on each of the sides

  • [tex]\bold{x+5-5}[/tex]  [tex]\bold{=10-5}[/tex]
  • [tex]\bold{Cancel:5-5}[/tex] because that gives you the result of [tex]\bold{0}[/tex] which is NOT our answer
  • [tex]\bold{Keep:10-5}[/tex] because it gives us the result your "[tex]\bold{x-term}[/tex] "
  • [tex]\boxed{\boxed{\bold{Answer:x=5}}}[/tex]

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
