Answer: the answer is 7
Step-by-step explanation: add 9 to both sides, eliminating -9 so now you have 7x=49 divide both by 7 and you get x= 7 check it by inputing 7 for x, 7(7)-9=40
7(7)=49 next 49-9= 40
it checks out, so x= 7

We divide first number from first parenthesis with first number from second parenthesis. Then the resulting number we multiply by all numbers in second parenthesis and substract from first parenthesis.

We repeat previous steps until we run out of numbers:


We are left with a number that has no x inside. This is remainder.
The final solution is sum of all these solutions and remainder:
Answer: -5/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Apply the fraction rule: a/-b = -a/b
-5/6/2/3
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Divide fractions: a/b/c/d = a x d/ b x c
-5 x 3 / 6 x 2
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Multiply the numbers: 6 x 2 = 12
-5 x 3 / 12
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Multiply the numbers: 5 x 3 = 15
-15/12
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cancel the common factor.3
-5/4
