Question

X: -3x + 14 = 4x -7

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

You are solving for x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. PEMDAS is the order of operation, and equals:

Parenthesis

Exponents (& Roots)

Multiplication

Division

Addition

Subtraction

First, subtract 14 and 4x from both sides:

-3x (-4x) + 14 (-14) = 4x (-4x) - 7 (-14)

-3x - 4x = -7 - 14

-7x = -21

Next, divide -7 from both sides of the equation:

(-7x)/-7 = (-21)/-7

x = -21/-7

x = 3

x = 3 is your answer.
