Question

Solve. 4 + x/7 = 2
A -14
B -10
C -12
D -42

Answer 1

A -14

Explanation:

I'm going to assume your expression is 4 + (x/7) = 2 as opposed to (4+x) / 7 = 2

4 + (x/7) = 2 (subtract 4 from both sides).

(x/7) = 2 - 4

x/7 = -2 (multiply both sides by 7)

x = -2 (7) = -14

Answer 2

The answer to your question is: x = - 14

Explanation:

Solve 4 + x/7 = 2

Multiply by 7 7(4 + x/7 = 2)

expand 28 + x = 14

simplify x = 14 - 28

result x = - 14
