Question 712808
{{{(x+59)+(x+51)+84=180}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{x+59+x+51+84=180}}} Distribute.



{{{2x+194=180}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{2x=180-194}}} Subtract {{{194}}} from both sides.



{{{2x=-14}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x=(-14)/(2)}}} Divide both sides by {{{2}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=-7}}} Reduce.

Answer:


So the solution is {{{x=-7}}}
