Step-by-step explanation: First, we simplify the equation to get 4x + 7 = 5x - 6. Then, from there, we subtract 7 on both sides to get 4x = 5x - 13. Then we subtract 5x from both sides, which would give us -x = -13. Finally, we can divide both sides by -1 (because remember, x = 1) to get that x = 13. Hope this helps!
This is theoretical probability. The 7 pieces of paper each bear one number from {1, 2, ... , 6, 7}. There is only one piece of paper marked 7. So the probability of drawing a 2 is 1/7.
