Answer: 39
Work: So, we need to get x by itself, so we need to get -7 away from that side. So, we are going to add -7 to both sides, cancelling it on the side it's currently on. So, the equitation // answer is x = 39.
Check: Okay, let's add in 39 for x and solve the equitation. -7 + 39 = ? It equals 32. So, this is correct. I hope this helps, and Happy Holidays. :)
