Divide by 10 both sides and you get a=4
We are given:

Our goal in solving for any variable, in this case is x, we need to isolate x on one side of the variable. Let's start by subtracting 7x from both sides, which will cancel the +7x on the right side. We are then left with:

Now, we want to move that +10 to the other side so our x is all by itself. Let's subtract 10 from both sides, which will cancel the +10 on the right leaving us with:

Since we cannot have a coefficient when solving for x, we need to divide both sides by -3.

When we divide, our answer is:

Step-by-step explanation:
12 + 16 ÷ 4 × 5 - 8
12 + 4 × 5 - 8
12 + 20 - 8
32 - 8
24
If Tyler did 32 laps and Kevin did 3 times that amount; its quite simple, you would find three times the amount of Tylers laps which is 96.
We know that, Volume of a Rectangular Prism is given by :
✿ {Length × Width × Height}
Given : The Length of Rectangular Prism = 5.5
Given : The Width of Rectangular Prism = 6
Given : The Height of Rectangular Prism = 3
⇒ The Volume of given Rectangular Prism = {5.5 × 6 × 3}
⇒ The Volume of given Rectangular Prism = 99
