Rewrite the equation with the variable on the left

5y + 3 = - 2y - 1

5y + 2y = - 1 - 3

200

Solve for x

-1.5x - 3.2 = 4.3

x = -5.2

200

Solve for a

- 15a + a = 70

a = - 5

200

Rewrite the equation with the variables on the right

10 - 4a = 6 + a

10 - 6 = a + 4a

300

Solve for x

2x - 3.5 = 7

x = 5.25
