Answer:

$x = - \frac{2}{13}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify to:

$\frac{2(x - 2)}{7}$

Multiply both sides by 7

2(x-2)=28x

Divide both sides by 2

x-2=14x

Subtract x from both sides

2=14x-x

Simplify 14x-x to 13x

2=13x

Divide both sides by 13

$- \frac{2}{13} = x$

Answer:

$x = - \frac{ 2}{13}$

What should be added to -5/4 to get -1?

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer: 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can actually write an equation to find what should be added to get -1.

$-\frac{5}{4}+x=-1$

We get this equaiton because the problem asks what should be added to -5/4 to get -1. We put x in place to see what number fits. X is being added to the -5/4.

$x=-1+\frac{5}{4}$

$x=-\frac{4}{4}+\frac{5}{4}$

$x=\frac{1}{4}$
