4-(x/7)=x/9 equation
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
4-(x/7) = x/9
Expand brackets in the left part
4-x/7 = x/9
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- \frac{x}{7} = \frac{x}{9} - 4$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$\frac{\left(-16\right) x}{63} = -4$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -16/63
x = -4 / (-16/63)
We get the answer: x = 63/4
