Question

150 = 8x + 6y 

solve for X ​

Answer 1

Simplifying

150 = 8x + 6y

Solving

150 = 8x + 6y

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-8x' to each side of the equation.

150 + -8x = 8x + -8x + 6y

Combine like terms: 8x + -8x = 0

150 + -8x = 0 + 6y

150 + -8x = 6y

Add '-150' to each side of the equation.

150 + -150 + -8x = -150 + 6y

Combine like terms: 150 + -150 = 0

0 + -8x = -150 + 6y

-8x = -150 + 6y

Divide each side by '-8'.

x = 18.75 + -0.75y

Simplifying

x = 18.75 + -0.75y

Explanation:

Answer 2

y=25

Explanation:

150=8x+6y

150=8(0)+6y

150=6y

divided by 6 on both sides because what you do to one side you have to do to the other side.

then your left with y=25
