    Yes

    x = 6

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given

    2x - 5 = 3 (1 - x) + 22

    First distribute 3 into (1 - x)

    We have

    2x - 5 = 3 x 1 - 3 x X + 22

    2x - 5 = 3 - 3x + 22

    The expression can be rearranged as

    2x - 5 = 3 + 22 - 3x

    2x - 5 = 25 - 3x

    Add 3x to both sides

    3x + 2x - 5 = 25 - 3x + 3x

    5x - 5 = 25

    Add five to both sides

    5x - 5 + 5 = 25 + 5

    5x = 30

    Divide both sides by 5

    5x/5 = 30/5

    x = 6
