180°= 14x + 7 + 20x + 8 what is the = of x

The answer is:    " x  =  4.853 " .

Explanation:

To solve:

Given:   " 180  =  14x  +  7  +  20x  + 8 "  ;   Solve for "x" .

From the "right-hand side" of the equation;  combine the "like terms" ; as follows:

   + 14x  + 20x  =  + 34x  ;

   +  7  +  8  = + 15  ;

and rewrite:

 180 =  34x + 15  ;

 ↔  34x  +  15  =  180 ;

Subtract "15" from EACH SIDE of the equation; as follows:

       34x  + 15  −  15  =  180 − 15  ;

to get :

       34x   =  165   ;

Now, let us divide EACH SIDE of the equation by "34" ;

to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ; as follows:

       34x  / 34  =  165 / 34  ;

to get:

            x  =  4.8529411764705882  ;  round to: " 4.853 "   .

The answer is:  " x = 4.853 " .
