The first thing you do is subtract negative 5 on both side because we want to get x by itself. Then we subtract 12 -5 which get us 7. So, the solution is x=7. And that how you solve the equation.
X+5=12 5-X+5=12-5 X=7 SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THATS ALL YOU NEED TO DO
