7 + -2(2 + 3x) = 27
7 + (2 * -2 + 3x * -2) = 27
7 + (-4 + -6x) = 27
Combine like terms: 7 + -4 = 3
3 + -6x = 27
Solving
3 + -6x = 27
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3' to each side of the equation.
3 + -3 + -6x = 27 + -3
Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0
0 + -6x = 27 + -3
-6x = 27 + -3
Combine like terms: 27 + -3 = 24
-6x = 24
Divide each side by '-6'.
x = -4
Simplifying
x = -4</span>

<h3>What is an
equation?</h3>
An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.
An independent variable is a variable that does not depends on other variable while a dependent variable is a variable that depends on other variable.
Let a represent the amount invested at interest of 10% and b represent the amount invested at 8%, hence:
a + b = 155000 (1)
Also:
0.1a + 0.08b = 14100 (2)
From both equations:
a = 85000, b = 70000
