Answer:

Answer:

x=3

Explanation:

7−3x=−x+1

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

7−3x=−x+1

7+−3x=−x+1

−3x+7=−x+1

Step 2: Add x to both sides.

−3x+7+x=−x+1+x

−2x+7=1

Step 3: Subtract 7 from both sides.

−2x+7−7=1−7

−2x=−6

Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.

−2x

−2

=

−6

−2

x=3
