Alan has c pounds candy.
<span>He gives his friend Matt 2/3 of the candy he has.
So alan gets 2c/3 pounds

2c/3 = 4/9
⇒ c = 4/9 × 3/2 = 2/3 pound

Now alan has = 2/3 - 4/9 = 6-4 / 9 = 2/9 pound candy

Which step brings you closest to getting the variable alone on one side of the equation
Oliga [24]

Answer:

Adding 5 from both sides then dividing by 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to isolate x is to add 5 to both sides first:

21 = 7x

Then to isolate x by itself divide both sides by 7

x = 3

That would be the value of x and your final answer.
