  • How do you solve x/4+7 = -2


\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}


\large \sf (x )/(4) + 7 = - 2 \\

  • Multiply both sides of the equation by 4.


\large \sf \: x+28=-8

  • Subtract 28 from both sides.


\large \sf \: x=-8-28

  • Subtract 28 from -8 to get -36.


\large \boxed{ \bf \: x=-36 }
