Find the value of x which satisfies the equation
5(x-7)=7-2x
-
A.
x =2 -
B.
x=4 -
C.
x=6 -
D.
x = 14
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation
5(x – 7) = 7 – 2x
5x – 35 = 7 – 2x
5x + 2x = 7 + 35
7x = 42
x = (frac{42}{7})
= 6
Find the value of x which satisfies the equation
5(x-7)=7-2x
5(x – 7) = 7 – 2x
5x – 35 = 7 – 2x
5x + 2x = 7 + 35
7x = 42
x = (frac{42}{7})
= 6
