Answer:
x=−8
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−7(x+5)=21
(−7)(x)+(−7)(5)=21(Distribute)
−7x+−35=21
−7x−35=21
Step 2: Add 35 to both sides.
−7x−35+35=21+35
−7x=56
Step 3: Divide both sides by -7.
−7x/−7 = 56/−7
x=−8
Answer:-
Distributed: -7x+(-35)=21 Simplified: x=-8
Step-by-step explanation:-
Distributed:
-7(x+5)=21
(x*(-7))+(5*(-7))=21
-7x+(-35)=21
Simplified:
-7x-35=21
-7x=21+35
-7x=56
x=-8
