Answer:
-4x+7= -21
-4x= -21-7( this positive 7 will change to negative as we take in other side )
-4x = -28
Both the negative will be cancelled
4x = 28
x = 28/4
X = 7
therefore the X value is 7
- 4x+7=-21
-4x=-21-7
-4x=-28
x=7
Step-by-step explanation:
Like terms are collected first
The +7 moves to the other side of the equality sign making its sign negative (-7)
Two negatives makes a positive but the sign remains negative (when you have two numbers with a negative sign you sum them up but the sign of the sum remains negative)
Then divide both side by the coefficient of x which is - 4
-4x/4 =-28/4
The negative signs cancel out
x=7
