Question

What is the answer for
-7+x/3=-13

Answer 1

x = -32 or x = -18 Depends on how the equation is written

Explanation:

-7 + x/3 = -13

Find the answer by solving for x.

If the equation is written like this:

`(-7+x)/(3) = -13` Multiply both sides by 3 and add 7 to both sides

x = -32

Or if the equation is written like this:

`-7+(x)/(3) =-13` Add 7 to both sides and then multiply by 3

x = -18

Answer 2

x = - 18

Explanation:

Given

- 7 +
`(x)/(3)` = - 13 ( add 7 to both sides )

`(x)/(3)` = - 6 ( multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction )

x = - 18
