a math problem. The problem asks him to find the value of x in the equation 2x + 5 = 13.
To solve this equation, Beejal needs to isolate the variable x on one side of the equation.
First, he can subtract 5 from both sides of the equation to get:
2x + 5 - 5 = 13 - 5
Simplifying both sides, he gets:
2x = 8
Finally, to find the value of x, Beejal divides both sides of the equation by 2:
2x/2 = 8/2
Simplifying, he gets:
x = 4
So, the value of x in the equation 2x + 5 = 13 is 4.
