To isolate \( x \) in the equation, you've started with:
\[ 50 + 5x = 60 \]
Next, you subtract 50 from both sides:
\[ 50 + 5x - 50 = 60 - 50 \]
This simplifies to:
\[ 5x = 10 \]
Now, to solve for \( x \), divide both sides by 5:
\[ x = \frac{10}{5} \]
So,
\[ x = 2 \]
Therefore, the value of \( x \) is 2.
