You have to distribute the 7 to x and 2 so :
7x+14=2x-1
Add one to both sides (inverse operations)
7x+14=2x-1
+1 +1
7x+15=2x
Cross Cancel by subtracting 7x from both sides
7x+15=2x
-7x -7x
15=-5x
Divide by -5
15/-5= -5/-5
X= -3

Answer:
y=3x-4
Step-by-step explanation:
165 Ting Ting's beads* (4 Sherrie's beads/ 5 Ting Ting's beads)= 132 Sherrie's beads.
132 Sherrie's beads* (1 Roxanne's bead/ 2 Sherrie's beads)= 66 Roxanne's beads.
Now that we know the number of beads Roxanne and Ting Ting have, let's subtract:
165 beads- 66 beads= 99 beads.
Hope this would help :))

Division is the usual shortcut for repeated subtraction. You could subtract 5.5 from 264 until you get to zero. You would have to do 48 subtractions. It is easier to divide 264 by 5.5 to see how many times it goes.
