Answer:

x=63

Explanation:

Subtract by 150 from both sides of equation.

150-x-150=87-150

Simplify.

87-150=-63

-x=-63

Divide by -1 from both sides of equation.

-x/1=-63/-1

Simplify, to find the answer.

-63/-1=63

x=63 is the correct answer.

I hope this helps you, and have a wonderful day!
