If 2x + 5 = 11, what is the value of x?

The correct answer is: 6

To find the value of x in this equation, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation by subtracting 5 from both sides. This leaves us with 2x = 6. We can then divide both sides by 2 to find that x = 3. Therefore, option B is the correct answer. Option A is incorrect because 5 is already part of the original equation. Option C is incorrect because if we substitute x with 2, we get 2(2) + 5 = 9, which is not equal to 11. Option D is incorrect because if we substitute x with 7, we get 2(7) + 5 = 19, which is not equal to 11.
