Answer:
x = (y - b)/m
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
First subtract b from both sides:
y = mx + b
y (-b) = mx + b (-b)
y - b = mx
Next, divide m from both sides:
(y - b)/m = (mx)/m
x = (y - b)/m
x = (y - b)/m is your answer.

I'd say 6'3. But I can't be positive.
Remember that the angles of a triangle is 180 so:
(7x+8) + (5x+2) + (7x-1) = 180
7x+8+5x+2+7x-1=180
7x+5x+7x=180-8-2+1
19x=171
X= 171/19
X=9
Therefore x=9
