Respuesta :

Your answers all seem correct.

Answer:

[tex]7=x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation

[tex]4x = 7(x - 3)[/tex]

we apply distributive property [tex]c(b+a)= bc+ac[/tex]

[tex]4x = 7x - 21[/tex]

Group similar terms

[tex]21=7x-4x[/tex]

Resolve addition / subtraction operations

[tex]21=3x[/tex]

clear the x. Dividing both terms by the coefficient that accompanies the x

[tex]\frac{21}{3}=\frac{3x}{3}[/tex]

[tex]7=x[/tex]
