Answer 3

thanks both of you

Answer 4

3x = 105

Answer 5

oops srry and Simplifying
3x + -24 = 81

Reorder the terms:
-24 + 3x = 81

Solving
-24 + 3x = 81

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '24' to each side of the equation.
-24 + 24 + 3x = 81 + 24

Combine like terms: -24 + 24 = 0
0 + 3x = 81 + 24
3x = 81 + 24

Combine like terms: 81 + 24 = 105
3x = 105

Divide each side by '3'.
x = 35

Simplifying
x = 35
