12a)
5x + 45 + 3x - 25 = 180
8x + 20 = 180
8x = 160
x = 20
12b)
2x - 5 = 2(20) - 5 = 40 - 5 = 35
3x - 25 = 3(20) - 25 = 60 - 25 = 35
y = 180 - (35+35)
y = 180 - 70
y = 110
Answer:
The answer is 27
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
2(3y+6+3)=196−16
(2)(3y)+(2)(6)+(2)(3)=196+−16(Distribute)
6y+12+6=196+−16
(6y)+(12+6)=(196+−16)(Combine Like Terms)
6y+18=180
6y+18=180
Step 2: Subtract 18 from both sides.
6y+18−18=180−18
6y=162
Step 3: Divide both sides by 6.
6y
/6
=
162
/6
y=27
