Given the equation:

2.5 + x = 10

Simplify the equation.

Solution:

In order to simplify the equation, we simply need to transpose 2.5 to the other side of the equation, hence it must be taken to note that in transposing a number, the sign changes.

2.5 + x = 10

x = 10 - 2.5

x = 7.5

Final answer:

x = 7.5
