Answer:

x = 5/2     or     x = 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x, we will have to get the equation 2x + 15 = 20 into the form x = _. That will be our answer.

2x + 15 = 20

Subtract 15 from both sides to get rid of the +15 on the left side.

2x = 20 - 15

Simplify.

2x = 5

Divide both sides by 2 to get rid of the coefficient of 2 on the left side.\

x = 5/2 = 2.5

x = 5/2   or    x = 2.5

I hope you find my answer helpful. :)
