Question

Solve the equation 7 − 2x = 19.

Question 11 options:

x = −13


x = −6


x = 6


x = 13

Answer 1

-6

Explanation:

firstly arrange whole equation,

-2x+7=19

Now, Transpose 7 to RHS (right hand side)

-2x=19-7

-2x=12

Further, seperate coefficient -2 from x

and transpose it to RHS and divide them

x=12/-2

Hence, x= -6
