Question

Seven less than four times a number equals 13. What is the number. Ok

Answer 1

5

Explanation:

5*4=20 20-7=13 and that's how I got the answer of five

Answer 2

-1.5

Explanation:

7-4x=13

Solve for x.

Subtract 7 from both sides to isolate the variable.

7-4x=13

-7 -7

Simplify

-4x= 6

÷-4 ÷-4

x= -1.5

To check my work.

7-4(-1.5)= 13

7-(-6)=13

7+6=13

Hope this helped!
