Answer:

x = 28

Explanation:

7 + x/5 = 7

We have to get a value of x that adds to 7 and forms a improper fraction equivalent to 7

Basically 35/5 = 7

so 35 - 7 = 28

x = 28

Answer:

-10 = x

Explanation:

5=7+x/5

Subtract 7 from each side

5-7=7-7+x/5

-2 = x/5

Multiply each side by 5

-2 *5 = x/5 *5

-10 = x
