[tex]4x + 7 - (x + 6) = 68 \\ \\ 4x + 7 - x - 6 = 68 \\ \\ 3x + 1 = 68 \\ \\ 3x = 68 - 1 \\ \\ 3x = 67 \\ \\ x = \frac{67}{3} \\ \\ x = 22.3[/tex]

The value of x is 67/3 or 22.3 .

First let's distribute the minus sign.

[tex]\twoheadrightarrow\sf 4x+7-x-6=68[/tex]

[tex]\bullet[/tex] Add 6 to both sides

[tex]\twoheadrightarrow\sf 4x+7-x=74[/tex]

[tex]\bullet[/tex] Subtract the x's

[tex]\twoheadrightarrow\sf 3x+7=74[/tex]

[tex]\bullet[/tex] Subtract 7 from both sides

[tex]\twoheadrightarrow\sf3x=67[/tex]

[tex]\bullet[/tex] Divide both sides by 3

[tex]\twoheadrightarrow\sf x=\cfrac{67}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\bullet[/tex] Great job! We solved for the variable
