Question

write and solve an equation based off of the variable prase.The difference between 7 and the prouduct 3x is 23

Answer 1

The difference between 7 and the product of 3x is 23

the product of 3x: 3x

The difference between 7.... : 3x - 7

is 23: = 23

3x - 7 = 23

Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS

First, add 7 to both sides

3x - 7 (+7) = 23 (+7)

3x = 30

Next, to isolate the x, divide 3 from both sides

3x/3 = 30/3

x = 30/3

x = 10

10 is your variable answer

hope this helps
