To solve for x, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation.
Starting with the equation -15x = 120, let's divide both sides by -15:
(-15x)/(-15) = 120/(-15)
This simplifies to:
x = -8
Therefore, x is equal to -8.

x−25=19 (9 points)x=
To solve for x, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation.
Starting with the equation x - 25 = 19, let's add 25 to both sides:
(x - 25) + 25 = 19 + 25
This simplifies to:
x = 44
Therefore, x is equal to 44.
Starting with the equation x - 25 = 19, let's add 25 to both sides:
(x - 25) + 25 = 19 + 25
This simplifies to:
x = 44
Therefore, x is equal to 44.
−3x+2=14 (9 points)x=
To solve for x, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation.
Starting with the equation -3x + 2 = 14, let's subtract 2 from both sides:
(-3x + 2) - 2 = 14 - 2
This simplifies to:
-3x = 12
Next, we divide both sides by -3:
(-3x) / -3 = 12 / -3
This gives us:
x = -4
Therefore, x is equal to -4.
Starting with the equation -3x + 2 = 14, let's subtract 2 from both sides:
(-3x + 2) - 2 = 14 - 2
This simplifies to:
-3x = 12
Next, we divide both sides by -3:
(-3x) / -3 = 12 / -3
This gives us:
x = -4
Therefore, x is equal to -4.
−2y−8=15 (9 points)y=
To solve for y, we need to isolate y on one side of the equation.
Starting with the equation -2y - 8 = 15, let's add 8 to both sides:
(-2y - 8) + 8 = 15 + 8
This simplifies to:
-2y = 23
Next, we divide both sides by -2:
(-2y) / -2 = 23 / -2
This gives us:
y = -23/2
Therefore, y is equal to -23/2 or -11.5.
Starting with the equation -2y - 8 = 15, let's add 8 to both sides:
(-2y - 8) + 8 = 15 + 8
This simplifies to:
-2y = 23
Next, we divide both sides by -2:
(-2y) / -2 = 23 / -2
This gives us:
y = -23/2
Therefore, y is equal to -23/2 or -11.5.
5(x−2)=21x=
To solve for x, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation.
Starting with the equation 5(x - 2) = 21, let's simplify the left side first by distributing the 5:
5x - 10 = 21
Next, let's isolate x by adding 10 to both sides:
5x - 10 + 10 = 21 + 10
This simplifies to:
5x = 31
Finally, divide both sides by 5 to solve for x:
(5x) / 5 = 31 / 5
This gives us:
x = 31/5
Therefore, x is equal to 31/5 or 6.2.
Starting with the equation 5(x - 2) = 21, let's simplify the left side first by distributing the 5:
5x - 10 = 21
Next, let's isolate x by adding 10 to both sides:
5x - 10 + 10 = 21 + 10
This simplifies to:
5x = 31
Finally, divide both sides by 5 to solve for x:
(5x) / 5 = 31 / 5
This gives us:
x = 31/5
Therefore, x is equal to 31/5 or 6.2.
x+19+7x+1=−200x=
To solve for x, we need to simplify the equation and then isolate x.
Starting with the equation x + 19 + 7x + 1 = -200, let's combine like terms:
8x + 20 = -200
Next, let's isolate x by subtracting 20 from both sides:
8x + 20 - 20 = -200 - 20
This simplifies to:
8x = -220
To solve for x, divide both sides by 8:
(8x) / 8 = -220 / 8
This gives us:
x = -27.5
Therefore, x is equal to -27.5.
Starting with the equation x + 19 + 7x + 1 = -200, let's combine like terms:
8x + 20 = -200
Next, let's isolate x by subtracting 20 from both sides:
8x + 20 - 20 = -200 - 20
This simplifies to:
8x = -220
To solve for x, divide both sides by 8:
(8x) / 8 = -220 / 8
This gives us:
x = -27.5
Therefore, x is equal to -27.5.
