Answer 2

Solving for x:

Start by distributing the numbers outside the parentheses to inside the parentheses:

-1 + 7x + 42 + 6x = 36

Now combine like (similar) terms:

13x + 41 = 36

Subtract 41 from both sides:

13x = -5

Divide both sides by 13:

x =
`-(5)/(13)`

Therefore, x =
`-(5)/(13)`.

Hope this helps! :)
