1-7*(4+2x)=-9-4x equation
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
1-7*(4+2*x) = -9-4*x
Expand brackets in the left part
1-7*4-7*2*x = -9-4*x
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-27 - 14*x = -9-4*x
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 14 x = 18 - 4 x$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$\left(-10\right) x = 18$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -10
x = 18 / (-10)
We get the answer: x = -9/5
