2x=56y+5(4x+3y)
2x = 56y +20x +15y
2x - 20x = 56y + 15y
-18x = 71y
x = -71y/18
How solving this ridiculously simple problem could allow you to assess how educated American students are is beyond comprehension. I think it allows the students of America to assess your education.

2x = 56y + 5(4x + 3y)
2x = 56y + 20x + 15y
-18x = 71y
x = -(71/18)y

x=(-71y)/18
why would you post here to see how educated america's students are? Most of the students here need help and aren't getting it or are lazy, therefore they are not a good sample of the student population.
I'm in college, so I'm probably not the type of student for which you're looking.
Or is this your homework?

x=-71/18y or in words x is equal to minus 71 over 18y
