For the first one,
you multiply 5x and -5 to get -25.
Then you move the constant to the right and change the sign to get 3x= -21 +25.
Calculate the sum of -21+25 to get 4.
Divide both sides of the equation by 3 to get x=4/3.
So then your final answer is x=4

For the second one,
Distribute 7 through the parentheses to get 14x + 14+8=120
The you add 14+8 to get 22. Your equation should be 14x+22=120
Move the constant to the right side and change its sign to get 14x=120-22
Subtract 120-22 to get 98. Now your equation should be 14x=98
Divide both sides of the equation by 14 to get x=7.
Your finial answer for the second one should be x=7.

I hope this made sense.
The number of students in Mr. Boggs’s homeroom is equal to b. Add the total number of students in each class and set it equal to 90.
90 = b + 1.5(b + 2) + 15 + (2b – 9)
Use the Distributive Property, and collect like terms. 90 = b + 1.5b + 3 + 15 + 2b – 9
90 = 4.5b + 9
