1.) 16x + 5 = 59 + 7x
---------------------------
Simplify
16x + 5 = 7x + 59
-----------------------------------
Subtarct 7x on each side
16x + 5 - 7x = 7x + 59 - 7x
9x
+ 5
= 59
----------------------------------------------
Subtract 5 from each side
9x + 5 - 5 = 59 - 5
9x
= 54
-------------------------------------------------------
Divide by 9 on each side
9x
÷ 9 = 54 ÷ 9
x = 6 is your answer
==================================================================
