8x-7x+34=240

To solve the equation \(8x - 7x + 34 = 240\), follow these steps:

1. Combine like terms on the left side: \[ (8x - 7x) + 34 = 240 \] \[ 1x + 34 = 240 \] \[ x + 34 = 240 \]

2. Subtract 34 from both sides to isolate \(x\): \[ x = 240 - 34 \] \[ x = 206 \]

The solution is: \[ x = 206 \]
