Answer:
Simplifying
X + 59 + 84 + X + 51 = 180
Reorder the terms:
59 + 84 + 51 + X + X = 180
Combine like terms: 59 + 84 = 143
143 + 51 + X + X = 180
Combine like terms: 143 + 51 = 194
194 + X + X = 180
Combine like terms: X + X = 2X
194 + 2X = 180
Solving
194 + 2X = 180
Solving for variable 'X'.
Move all terms containing X to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-194' to each side of the equation.
194 + -194 + 2X = 180 + -194
Combine like terms: 194 + -194 = 0
0 + 2X = 180 + -194
2X = 180 + -194
Combine like terms: 180 + -194 = -14
2X = -14
Divide each side by '2'.
X = -7
Simplifying
X = -7
