Answer:

x = 4

Explanation:

7x + 16/11 = 4

11 x 7x + 16/11 = 4 x 11

7x + 16 = 44

7x + 16 - 16 = 44 - 16

7x = 28

7x/7 = 28/7

x = 4

Check:

7x + 16/11 = 4

7(4) + 16/11 = 4

28 + 16/11 = 4

44/11 = 4

4 = 4 (note that this number is not the answer, just to check if each side is balanced, the actual answer is 4)

Bam !

Hope this helps ^w^

Equality Properties

  • Multiplication Property of Equality
  • Division Property of Equality
  • Addition Property of Equality
  • Subtract Property of Equality

Explanation:

Step 1: Define


\displaystyle (7x + 16)/(11) = 4

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. Multiply 11 on both sides:
    \displaystyle 7x + 16 = 44
  2. Subtract 16 on both sides:
    \displaystyle 7x = 28
  3. Divide 7 on both sides:
    \displaystyle x = 4

Step 3: Check

Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

  1. Substitute in x:
    \displaystyle (7(4) + 16)/(11) = 4
  2. [Frac] Multiply:
    \displaystyle (28 + 16)/(11) = 4
  3. [Frac] Add:
    \displaystyle (44)/(11) = 4
  4. [Frac] Divide:
    \displaystyle 4 = 4

Here we see that 4 does indeed equal 4.

∴ x = 4 is the solution to the equation.
