#x=5.5#

First, you subtract #7# from both sides. You are left with

#2x=11#

Then, you divide #2# from both sides and you get your answer. The answer is

#x=5.5#

#x=11/2#

We want to solve for #x# here. Let's start by subtracting #7# from both sides. Doing this, we now have

#2x=11#

Lastly, dividing both sides by #2#, we get

#x=11/2#, which can be alternatively written as #5.5#.

Hope this helps!
