Question

Drag steps of the solution into order to solve for x in the equation 7(x – 4) = 84.

Answer 1

Answer:

Given the equation:

$7(x-4) = 84$

Using the distributive property, i.e,  $a \cdot (b+c) = a\cdot b+ a\cdot c$ we have;

$7x -28 = 84$

Add 28 to both sides we have;

$7x = 112$

Divide both sides by 7 we have;

$x = 16$

⇒value of x is, 16

Following Steps are as follow:

$7(x-4) = 84$

$7x -28 = 84$

$7x = 112$

$x = 16$

Answer 2

x=16

Step-by-step explanation:

1.  7x -28 =84

2. 7x = 112
