Question 818104
{{{x+3x+(x+2)+(5x-4)+30+42=360}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{x+3x+x+2+5x-4+30+42=360}}} Remove parenthesis.



{{{10x+70=360}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{10x=360-70}}} Subtract {{{70}}} from both sides.



{{{10x=290}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x=(290)/(10)}}} Divide both sides by {{{10}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=29}}} Reduce.

Answer:


So the solution is {{{x=29}}}
