Solution

The correct option is C $9$
Given, $x - 2 = 7$
Add $2$ on both the sides, we get
$x - 2 + 2 = 7 + 2$
$\Rightarrow x = 9$
Hence, option C is correct.

Solve the following systems of equations:

$3 x - \frac{y + 7}{11} + 2 = 10$

$2 y + \frac{x + 11}{7} = 10$

5 x - 11 = 2 x + 7

3 (x - 8) - 2 (x - 5) = 2 - 5 x

2 (3 x + 1) - 7 = 2 (6 x - 7)
