Answer 1

`{ \green{ \boxed{ \red{ \sf{x = 14}}}}}`

Explanation:

`{ \purple{ \tt{36x + 31 = 535}}}`

`{ \purple{ \tt36x = 535 - 31}}`

`{ \purple{ \tt{36x = 504}}}`

Divide both the sides by 36 then,

`{ \purple{ \tt{ \frac{ \cancel{36}}{ \cancel{36}}}}} = { \purple{ \tt{ \frac{ \cancel{504}} { \cancel{36}}}}}`

`{ \red{ \boxed{ \green{ \sf{x = 14}}}}}`

Answer 2

A

Explanation:

36x = 535 - 31

36x = 504

36/36 x = 504/36

x = 14
