Answer:

x = 65

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

multiply both sides by 5 to eliminate the fraction

2(x + [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]) = 135

Step 2

Distribute the parenthesis

2x + 5 = 135

Step 3

Subtract 5 from both sides

2x = 130

Step 4

Divide both sides by 2

x = 65

These would be the steps I would take, however the steps indicated in the question would be

step 4 → step 1 → step 2 → step 3
