To solve for x, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation.
First, we add 5 to both sides of the equation to get rid of the -5:
5x - 5 + 5 = 50 + 5
This simplifies to:
5x = 55
Next, we divide both sides of the equation by 5 to solve for x:
5x/5 = 55/5
This simplifies to:
x = 11
Therefore, the solution is x = 11.
Solve for x.
