Find x please:

6x degrees + 5 degrees = 149 degrees

(6x+5)=149

x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

(6x + 5) = 149

6x + 5 = 149

6x = 149 - 5

6x = 144

x = 144 / 6

x = 24

x=24

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a linear equation.

(6x+5)=149

Collect like terms by placing the +5 after the equality sign, which will make it become -5

6x=149-5

6x=144

Divide both sides by 6

6x/6=144/6

x=144/6

x=24

We can go further to check, if we are correct by substituting x with 24 in the equation. And then both sides of the equation must be the same

(6x+5)=149

6(24)+5=149

144+5=149

149=149

answer: 7
