  1. Ask your question and show the work you've done so far. If you've posted a screenshot of a question, specify which part you need help with.
  2. Wait patiently for a helper to come along.
  3. Once someone helps you, say thank you and close the thread with:
    +close
  4. Feel free to nominate the person for helper of the week in #helper-nominations
  5. Do not ping the mods, unless someone is breaking the rules. If there is a conflict amongst multiple helpers feel free to ping “Helper Mod”
  6. If you're happy with the help you got here, and the server overall, you can contribute financially as well:

I have got you bro

#

start by isolating x on one side

dire falcon
#

So first what you want to do is subtract 5 from both sides

#

HEY I DIBS IT

#

So that cancels the +5 on the left side and then 15-5 =10

#

So 2x = 10

#

Then divide both sides by two

#

I read the question wrong

#

2x =5

#

And then x= 5/2

#

Or 2.5

2x + 5 = 10
- 5 - 5
2x = 5
÷ 2 ÷ 2
x = 2.5
