Answer 1

5(x+12)=95
(5)(x)+(5)(12)=95=5x+60=955x+60−60=95−60
5x=355x5=355
x=7Answer: 7

I hope this helped you!

Answer 2

solve equation step by step
5( x + 12) = 95

Simplify both sides:
5( x + 12) = 95
(5)(x) + (5)(12) = 95    ( Distribute)
5x + 60 = 95

Subtract from both sides:
5x + 60 - 60 = 95 - 60
5x = 35

Divide both sides by 5:
5x/5 = 35/5
x =7

Answer: x = 7
