Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

[tex]7+5(x-3)=22[/tex]

We need to find the value of x for which the given statement is true.

Using distributive property we get

[tex]7+5(x)+5(-3)=22[/tex]

[tex]7+5x-15=22[/tex]

[tex]5x-8=22[/tex]

Add 8 on both sides.

[tex]5x=22+8[/tex]

[tex]5x=30[/tex]

Divide both sides by 5.

[tex]\dfrac{5x}{5}=\dfrac{30}{5}[/tex]

[tex]x=6[/tex]

Therefore, the given statement is true  form x=6.
