Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
-7(x + -2) + 1 = 15 + -7x
Reorder the terms:
-7(-2 + x) + 1 = 15 + -7x
(-2 * -7 + x * -7) + 1 = 15 + -7x
(14 + -7x) + 1 = 15 + -7x
Reorder the terms:
14 + 1 + -7x = 15 + -7x
Combine like terms: 14 + 1 = 15
15 + -7x = 15 + -7x
Add '-15' to each side of the equation.
15 + -15 + -7x = 15 + -15 + -7x
Combine like terms: 15 + -15 = 0
0 + -7x = 15 + -15 + -7x
-7x = 15 + -15 + -7x
Combine like terms: 15 + -15 = 0
-7x = 0 + -7x
-7x = -7x
Add '7x' to each side of the equation.
-7x + 7x = -7x + 7x
Combine like terms: -7x + 7x = 0
0 = -7x + 7x
Combine like terms: -7x + 7x = 0
0 = 0
Solving
0 = 0
