    2x + 5 = 61

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let x be equal to the temperature in Boise.

    Since the temperature in San Diego is 5 degrees warmer than twice the temperature in Boise, we must double the temperature in Boise and then add 5 degrees. To do this we put a 2 in front of the x and then add 5 to that.

    2x + 5

    Since we know the temperature in San Diego is 61 we can make the equation equal to 61.

    2x + 5 = 61
