$x=5.5$

First, you subtract $7$ from both sides. You are left with

$2x=11$

Then, you divide $2$ from both sides and you get your answer. The answer is

$x=5.5$

$x=11/2$

We want to solve for $x$ here. Let's start by subtracting $7$ from both sides. Doing this, we now have

$2x=11$

Lastly, dividing both sides by $2$ , we get

$x=11/2$ , which can be alternatively written as $5.5$ .

Hope this helps!
