    16 = 7x-5

    +5 + 5

    21 divide by 7 = 7x divide by 7

    3 = x

    Adding 5 from both sides then dividing by 7

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The best way to isolate x is to add 5 to both sides first:

    21 = 7x

    Then to isolate x by itself divide both sides by 7

    x = 3

    That would be the value of x and your final answer.
