Simplifying
3x + 5 = 130

Reorder the terms:
5 + 3x = 130

Solving
5 + 3x = 130

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-5' to each side of the equation.
5 + -5 + 3x = 130 + -5

Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0
0 + 3x = 130 + -5
3x = 130 + -5

Combine like terms: 130 + -5 = 125
3x = 125

Divide each side by '3'.
x = 41.66666667

Simplifying
x = 41.66666667

(ok i was gonna help but it seems like others have got your back. btw this is all algebra, not geometry)

@Relsey-TheElder

(Lol this is geometry-)

(No, This is algebra, you're probably covering it in your geometry class because it's really important to know how to do multiple step equations in geometry. If it's not dealing with distance, shape, or size than it's not geometry. And then sometimes you get Algebraic Geometry but that is a subject for another time)

(wait– then why'd DIP solve it like Algebra gbdjsoihfbks)

Because I'M STUPID AND DIDN'T SEE THE DEGREE SYMBOL
