Answer 1

x = 4/3

Explanation:

move (combine) your X's on one side

combine like terms

divide and multiply

Answer 2

`x = (4)/(3)`

Option B is the correct option.

Explanation:

`- x + (3)/(7) = 2x - (25)/(7)`

Move variable to L.H.S and change its sign

Similarly, Move constant to R.H.S and change its sign

`- x - 2x = - (25)/(7) - (3)/(7)`

Collect like terms

`- 3x = - (25)/(7) - (3)/(7)`

Calculate the difference

`- 3x = - 4`

Divide both sides of the equation by -3

`( - 3x)/( - 3) = ( - 4)/( - 3)`

Calculate

`x = (4)/(3)`

Hope this helps..
