x/2 + 5 =12 find the value of x

Answer 1

To solve the equation \( \frac{x}{2} + 5 = 12 \), follow these steps:

1. Subtract 5 from both sides of the equation: \[ \frac{x}{2} = 12 - 5 \] \[ \frac{x}{2} = 7 \]

2. Multiply both sides by 2 to solve for \( x \): \[ x = 7 \times 2 \] \[ x = 14 \]

So, the value of \( x \) is \( 14 \).
