x = 5
explanation
70 + 23x - 5 + 110 + 14x = 360
first you group the like terms
23x + 14x + 70 - 5 + 110 = 360
then combine the like terms
23x + 14x 70 - 5 + 110
37x + 175 = 360
subtract 175 from both sides
175 - 175 = 0 360 - 175 = 185
to get
37x = 185
divide both sides by 37
37x/37 = 0 185/37= 5
which gives you
x = 5
