Question

Solve negative 7 over 3, the whole multiplied by x minus 3 equals negative 52.

Answer 1

Answer:

x= $\frac{135}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. $-\frac{7}{3} (x-3)=-52$

2. combine -7/3(x - 3)

  =    $-\frac{7}{3}x-7 = -52$

3. Do combine like terms on both sides

   =   -52 + -7 = -45

4. left with, $-\frac{7}{3}x = -45$

5. divide -45 by -7/3

6. left with, $x = \frac{135}{7}$
