Question 20874: I dont understand how to solve equations like this 3/5x-7=17 when it comes to fractions I get all confused I understand problems as in 7x-5+9=21 I solve it the following 7x-5x becomes 2x so you then have 2x+9=21 then I would subtract 9 from both sides of the = sign giving me 2x+9-9=21-9 giving me 2x=12 the take 2x/2=12/2 which equals x=6 because 2*6=12 which makes x=6 but when it comes to the fraction in the problem I get all confussed as in this problem 3/5x-7=17 I dont know what to do with the fraction so if you could explain this to me I would really appreciate it very much thanks for your help we are on a block schedule so I dont have this class until Wednesday Nov 30th so I am tring o get this finished by Wednesday Thanks Again Nick

Question 20879: I'm a non traditional student returning to school so it's been a long time since I've done this.
Problem: -3=5-6y I've added 5 to 5 to make 0 and added 5 to -3 to get 2 then divided it into 6 to get three. When I double check it isn't doesn't come back to the -3 answer. I also came up with 1/3.
