hello

this is a simple equation and to solve this, we should first of all collect like terms together

[tex]5x-35=55-x[/tex]

step one

collect like terms together

[tex]\begin{gathered} 5x-35=55-x \\ 5x+x=55+35 \\ 6x=90 \end{gathered}[/tex]

step two

divide both sides by the coefficient of x

[tex]\begin{gathered} 6x=90 \\ \frac{6x}{6}=\frac{90}{6} \\ x=15 \end{gathered}[/tex]

from the calculations above, the value of x is equals to 15
