Question

4+7x=-24 how do you solve this algebraic expression

Answer 1

-3

Explanation:

Subtract 4 from both sides

7x= -24-4

7x= -28

Then divide both sides by 7

x= -28/7

x= -3

Answer 2

In order to solve this algebraic expression, you need to get the variable x by itself

Step 1: subtract 4 from each side

4-4+7x=-24-4 (4-4=0, those cancel out) (-24-4=-28)

7x=-28

Step 2: divide both sides by 7

7x/7=-28/7 (7x/7=x) -28/7=-4)

Your final answer would be x=-4

Hope this helps ;)
