    The answer to your question is x = 17

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Equation

    2x - 12 = x + 5

    1. - Subtract x in both sides

    2x - x - 12 = x - x + 5

    2. - Simplify

    x - 12 = 5 Now, there is only one x on the left

    3. - Add 12 in both sides

    x - 12 + 12 = 5 + 12

    4. - Simplify and result

    x = 17
