Answer: x = -6

Step-by-step explanation: Make sure you simplify the left

side of the equation completely before moving on.

The 2x + 27 + 8 on the left side of the equation simplifies to 2x + 25.

So we have 2x + 25 = x + 19 and now we can subtract x from both

sides to get x + 25 = 19 and subtract 25 from both sides to get x = -6.
