$x + 5 = 10; (5, 6)$

Open in App

Solution

Given equation is $x + 5 = 10$ .
Step $1$ : Substituting $x = 5$ in the above equation.
We get, LHS $= 5 + 5 = 10$ and RHS $= 10$
Since LHS $=$ RHS
Therefore, the above equation is true for $x = 5$ .
Step $2$ : Substituting $x = 6$ in the above equation.
We get, LHS $= 6 + 5 = 11$ and RHS $= 10$
Since LHS $\neq$ RHS
Therefore, the above equation is not true for $x = 6$ .
Hence, the answer is $x = 5$ .
