What number should both sides of the equation −7x=14 be divided by to solve for the value of x?
i need the answer PLEASE
Both sides of the equation should be divided by -7 to solve for the value of x.
ok this is the same thing just different equation
x/-5 = -6
Both sides of this equation should be divided by -1/5 to solve for the value of x.
invaled
My apologies for the confusion. Both sides of the equation should be multiplied by -5 to solve for the value of x.
To solve the equation −7x=14 and find the value of x, both sides of the equation should be divided by −7. By performing this operation, we can isolate the variable x.
Dividing both sides of the equation by −7 gives:
−7x / −7 = 14 / −7
This simplifies to:
x = -2
Therefore, the value of x in the equation −7x=14 is -2.
To solve the equation −7x = 14 for the value of x, you need to eliminate the coefficient (−7) on the variable (x) by dividing both sides of the equation by the same number.
In this case, to isolate x, you should divide both sides of the equation by −7.
Dividing both sides of the equation −7x = 14 by −7 gives:
−7x / −7 = 14 / −7
Simplifying this equation further, −7 divided by −7 equals 1, and 14 divided by −7 equals −2:
1x = −2
Therefore, the value of x is −2.
