Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

7 (x-8)=2x-31

Distribute the 7 to the x and -8 (basically multiple 7 with the x and -8)

7x-56=2x -31

Drag the 2x over to the other subtracting it from 7x.

7x-2x-56=-31

5x-56=-31

Drag the 56 to the other side and add it to -31

5x= -31+56 (or 56-31)

5x= 25

Divide 5x from 25 to get your X

x=25/5

x=5

Hope this helps!!

Answer:

2. 4x = 7x - 21

Step-by-step explanation:

$4x = 7(x - 3) \\ 4x = 7x - 21 \\ 21 = 7x - 4x \\ 21 = 3x \\ \frac{21}{3} = x \\ 7 = x \\$
