STEP 1
Assumptions1. We are given an equation with a variable and some arithmetic operations.
. We need to find the value of by solving the equation.
3. We are also required to fill in the missing terms in the equation.
STEP 2
The first step is to combine like terms on the left side of the equation. The like terms here are the constants15 and -7.
STEP 3
Combine the constants15 and -7 to get the missing term in the next line.
So, the missing term in the second line is8.
STEP 4
Next, we need to isolate on one side of the equation. This means we need to subtract8 from both sides of the equation.
STEP 5
Subtract8 from both sides to get the missing term in the third line.
So, the missing term in the third line is.
STEP 6
Now, we need to solve for . This means we need to divide both sides of the equation by3.
STEP 7
Divide both sides of the equation by3 to get the missing term in the fourth line.
So, the missing term in the fourth line is2.
The solution to the equation is .
