Answer:

x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation:

-7x-9= 19

We want to solve for x. Therefore, we must isolate x on one side of the equation.

9 is being subtracted. The inverse of subtraction is addition. Add 9 to both sides of the equation.

-7x-9+9= 19+9

-7x= 28

x is being multiplied by -7. The inverse of multiplication is division. Divide -7 on both sides.

-7x/-7=28/-7

x= 28/-7

x= -4

Let’s check our solution. Plug -4 in for x and solve.

-7x-9=19

-7(-4)-9=19

28-9=19

19=19

This checks out, so we know our solution is correct.

The solution to the equation -7x-9=19 is x= -4
