See your question. Add them up and they are equal to 180

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OKay..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then what.

OpenStudy (hba):

Do this and show me first.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Idk how to do it

OpenStudy (hba):

(3x+31)+(2x+6)=180 Now solve for x

OpenStudy (hba):

Is it 2x-6 or 2x+6 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats the first step?

OpenStudy (hba):

So, 3x+31+2x-6=180 Add like terms first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk how.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh, 5x.

OpenStudy (hba):

OpenStudy (hba):

OpenStudy (hba):

@Hero Please jump in.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

??

OpenStudy (hba):

3x+31+2x-6=180 5x+31-6=180 What about subtracting 31 and 6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got 5x+26=180

OpenStudy (hba):

31-6=25

OpenStudy (anonymous):

???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, little mistake meant to put 25 llol but not sure how to solve this one.

OpenStudy (hba):

For this you need to 1)subtract both sides by 25 2)divide both sides by 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Answer=31 (:
