Answer:

[tex]x = 15[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

[tex]2x = 15 + x[/tex]

This is a linear equation in x.

We solve for x by grouping similar terms.

Let us subtract x from both sides of the equation to get:

[tex]2x - x = 15 + x - x[/tex]

We simplify to get:

[tex]x= 15 + 0[/tex]

This implies that:

[tex]x = 15[/tex]

Therefore the correct solution is x=15.
