To solve for x, we need to isolate the variable on one side of the equation.
Starting with the given equation,
3x + 5 = 29
We want to isolate x, so let's first subtract 5 from both sides of the equation:
3x + 5 - 5 = 29 - 5
3x = 24
Next, we need to isolate x, so let's divide both sides by 3:
(3x)/3 = 24/3
x = 8.
Therefore, the solution to the equation 3x + 5 = 29 is x = 8.
3x+5=29
