You Just want to get Fahrenheit alone on one side of the equal sign. Your teacher forgot to use parenthesis. The correct equation for Celsius to Fahrenheit is:
Which will give you a completely different answer.... 
****
We will solve it using what is given:
C = (5/9)F - 32
C + 32 = (5/9)F
9(C + 32) = 5F
(9/5)(C + 32) = F
** If they mark you wrong, and try to say the answer is F = (9/5)C + 32 then they shouldn't be teaching math, and you should point out the fact there are no parenthesis around the F - 32 in the given formula.
Answer:
x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
12y = 75 + 5x + 2x - 1
combine like terms:
12y = 74 + 7x
subtract 74 from both sides:
7x = 12y - 74
divide both sides by 7:
x =
