Question

-1/2x = -7 please answer I need help

Answer 1

x = 14

Explanation:

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Multiply -2 to both sides of the equation:

-2 * (-1/2x) = -2 * -7

x = -2 * -7

x = 14

Note that when you multiply two negative numbers, the answer will be positive.

14 is your answer for x.
