In a simple model of the economy (by John Maynard Keynes), equilibrium between national output and national expenditures is given by the equilibrium equation $$ Y=C+I+G+(X-M) $$ where $Y$ is the national income, C is consumption (which depends on national income), I is the amount of investment, $G$ is government spending, $X$ is exports, and $M$ is imports (which also depend on national income). Solve the equilibrium equation for $Y$ under the given conditions. $$\begin{aligned} &C=60+.85 Y, M=35+.2 Y, I=95, G=145, \text { and }\\ &X=50 \end{aligned}$$
