\begin{gathered} 6x+38+3x+70+6x+38+3x+70=360 \\ 18x+216=360 \\ \text{Solve for x:} \\ 18x=360-216 \\ 18x=144 \\ x=(144)/(18) \\ x=8 \end{gathered}

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


\begin{gathered} 2(4x-55)+2(3x+25)=360 \\ 8x-110+6x+50=360 \\ 14x-60=360 \\ \text{Solve for x:} \\ 14x=420 \\ x=(420)/(14) \\ x=30 \end{gathered}

\begin{gathered} 11x-54=3x+120 \\ 8x=174 \\ x=(174)/(8)=21.75 \end{gathered}
