Answer:

x= 16

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you want to distribute each side! (you're gonna wanna learn this because you will be having to do it for the next 3 years no joke it sucks)

7(x+2) can be distributed as 7x+14 after multiplying 7 times x and 7 times 2, and 6(x+5) can be distributed as 6x+30.

Now, you have to get the x on one side to solve for x (so like x=__).

To do this, look at the equation as of now. 7x+14=6x+30.

We can minus 14 and bring that to the right, and minus 6x and bring that to the left to separate the x's and the regular numbers.

Now we have 16=x (or x=16).
