Q.

2x + 1 = 5

Identify Equation: Identify the equation to solve: $2x + 1 = 5$ . We need to find the value of $x$ that makes this equation true.
Subtract to Isolate: Subtract $1$ from both sides of the equation to isolate the term with $x$ . This gives us $2x + 1 - 1 = 5 - 1$ .
Perform Subtraction: Perform the subtraction: $2x = 4$ . Now, the equation is simplified, and we have isolated the term with $x$ on one side.
Divide to Solve: Divide both sides of the equation by $2$ to solve for $x$ . This gives us $\frac{2x}{2} = \frac{4}{2}.$
Perform Division: Perform the division: $x = 2$ . We have found the value of $x$ that makes the original equation true.
