Question

4/3 x-7=-11, I need to solve this equation but I'm not sure how to with the fraction in it. Could someone please help?

Answer 1

The value of x is -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

4/3 x-7=-11

By adding 7 to both sides of equation:

= 4/3x - 7 + 7 = -11 + 7

= 4/3x = -4

By multiplying 3 on both sides

= 4/3x × 3 = -4 × 3

= 4x = -12

By dividing 4 on both sides of equation:

= 4x/4 = -12/4

= x = -3

Hence by solving equation, the value of x out to be -3.

Answer 2

The correct answer is x=-3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

`(4)/(3)x-7 = -11` ----- (A)

To solve the above equation, follow these steps:

Step-1:

Add 7 on both sides of equation (A):

(A)=>
`(4)/(3)x -7 + 7 = -11 + 7 \\ (4)/(3)x = -4`

Step-2:

Multiple 3 on both sides, you will get:

`(4)/(3)x * 3 = -4 * 3 \\ 4x = -12 \\ x = -3`

Hence the correct answer is x=-3.
