Answer: (7y+237) / 8 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
So your equation is:
(2y+50) + (7x-248) + (5y-17) + (x+44)
First thing to do is combine all the like terms. Lets start with y. So that would be 2y + 5y= 7y and 50 + -17 is 33. The new equation is:
(7y + 33) + (7x-248) + (x+44)
Now we will combine the x. We will do -248+44= -204
and 7x+x= 8x.
Now our new equation is:
(7y + 33) + (8x+-204)
Now we can subtract 33 from -204. That is 237.
Now we have 7y+237 = 8x
To isolate x we need to divide by 8. That will give us this:
(7y+237) / 8 = x
