Question

What does x equal in -7=-1+x/3

Answer 1

Hello! :)

To solve your equation, we will first simplify both sides of the equation

-7 = -1 + x/3

-7 = -1 + 1/3x

-7 = 1/3x - 1

Next, we will flip the equation

1/3x - 1 = -7

Third, we will add 1 to both sides

1/3x - 1 + 1 = -7 + 1

1/3x = -6

Last, we will Multiply both sides by 3

3 * (1/3x) = (3) * (-6)

x = -18 (ANSWER)

That means -18 is you answer

Hope this helped you!
