Question

-(7-2x) + 7 = -7 What is X?

Answer 1

Answer: x= $-\frac{7}{2} = -3 \frac{1}{2} = -3.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

−(7−2x)+7=−7

To find the opposite of 7−2x, find the opposite of each term.

−7−(−2x)+7=−7

The opposite of −2x is 2x.

−7+2x+7=−7

Add −7 and 7 to get 0.

2x=−7

Divide both sides by 2.

$x = \frac{-7}{2}$

Fraction  −7/2 can be rewritten as −2/7 by extracting the negative sign.

$x = -\frac{7}{2}$
