Step-by-step explanation:
-2a + x
Putting values of a = - 2 and x = 7
-2(-2) + 7
4 + 7
= 11
Technically nothing times 3 get you 16 but 3 times 5 equals 15 which is the closest answer but the answer would be 5.3
Answer:
x=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
1-7x-7=15
We move all terms to the left:
1-7x-7-(15)=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
-7x-21=0
We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
-7x=21
x=21/-7
x=-3
