Answer:
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
