What is the equilibrium level of income if C=100+0.8Y and I = 40

a)100
b)140
c)500
d)700

The answer is d) 700

Can someone please explain why? I really don't understand it at all. When I saw this I fought C+I+G+(X-M) - GDP equation. But I don't understand why its 700. I tried working backgrounds and when i substituted in 700 into 'Y' ...

C=100+0.8(700)
C=660

Then I thought add I=40 to 660....it equaled 700...iuno some sort of connection there?

I just don't understand.
