Anything that has 1 has x + is A positive number for any purpose of the equation
Hi.
102+6(7)+8 (your equation)
102+ 42+ 8 (since the order is PEMDAS, multiplication has to go first. 6x7=42
144 + 8 (since you go left to right, 102 +42 has to be 1st. Answer= 144)
152 (now the only thing left is 144 + 8, so do that. Answer= 152.)
Since that's the last step, 152 will be your answer.
Hoped I helped and if you need anymore you could always ask me~

You have the value for y, so you substitute that equation for y, times three because there are three yS.
So you have: 2x + 3y = 10
2x + 3 x 2x + 4 or 2x + 3(3x + 4)
so the answer would be B, 2x + 3(3x + 4)
