For this case we have the following equation:


7c + 7a-7r + 8m + 2y = 31

We solve for c:

We pass the terms that do not contain "c" to the other side of the equation by changing signs:


7c = 31-7a + 7r-8m-2y

We divide by 7 on both sides of the equation:


c = \frac {31-7a + 7r-8m-2y} {7}

We solve for "a":

We pass the terms that do not contain "a" to the other side of the equation by changing signs:


7a = 31-7c + 7r-8m-2y

We divide by 7 on both sides of the equation:


a = \frac {31-7c + 7r-8m-2y} {7}

We solve for r:

We pass the terms that do not contain "r" to the other side of the equation by changing signs:


-7r = 31-7c-7a-8m-2y

We multiply by -1 on both sides:


7r = 7c + 7a + 8m + 2y-31

We divide by 7 on both sides of the equation:


r = \frac {7c + 7a + 8m + 2y-31} {7}

We solve for m:

We pass the terms that do not contain "m" to the other side of the equation by changing signs:


7c + 7a-7r + 8m + 2y = 31\\8m = 31-7c-7a + 7r-2y

We divide by 7 on both sides of the equation:


m = \frac {31-7c-7a + 7r-2y} {8}

We solve for y:

We pass the terms that do not contain "y" to the other side of the equation by changing signs:


2y=31-7c-7a+7r-8m

We divide by 2 on both sides of the equation:


y=(31-7c-7a+7r-8m)/(2)

Answer:


c = \frac {31-7a + 7r-8m-2y} {7}


a = \frac {31-7c + 7r-8m-2y} {7}


r = \frac {7c + 7a + 8m + 2y-31} {7}


m = \frac {31-7c-7a + 7r-2y} {8}


y=(31-7c-7a+7r-8m)/(2)
