(8x – 31)' |(5y + 35)\ (6x + 3)

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:Step-by-step explanation:Simplifying 8x + -31 + 5y + 35 + 6x + 3 = 180 Reorder the terms: -31 + 35 + 3 + 8x + 6x + 5y = 180 Combine like terms: -31 + 35 = 4 4 + 3 + 8x + 6x + 5y = 180 Combine like terms: 4 + 3 = 7 7 + 8x + 6x + 5y = 180 Combine like terms: 8x + 6x = 14x 7 + 14x + 5y = 180 Solving 7 + 14x + 5y = 180 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-7' to each side of the equation. 7 + 14x + -7 + 5y = 180 + -7 Reorder the terms: 7 + -7 + 14x + 5y = 180 + -7 Combine like terms: 7 + -7 = 0 0 + 14x + 5y = 180 + -7 14x + 5y = 180 + -7 Combine like terms: 180 + -7 = 173 14x + 5y = 173 Add '-5y' to each side of the equation. 14x + 5y + -5y = 173 + -5y Combine like terms: 5y + -5y = 0 14x + 0 = 173 + -5y 14x = 173 + -5y Divide each side by '14'. x = 12.35714286 + -0.3571428571y Simplifying x = 12.35714286 + -0.3571428571y
