Hello,
\n" ); document.write( "Let's take it step by step: (Note: we'll be solving for \"r\" not \"x\")
\n" ); document.write( "7[2-(3+4r]=-9+2(1-5r)
\n" ); document.write( "7[-1-4r]=-9+2(1-5r) Notice this step was corrected.
\n" ); document.write( "7[-1-4r] = -9+2-10r This step is corrected also.
\n" ); document.write( "-7-28r= -7 -10r From this step add 7 to both sides to get:
\n" ); document.write( "-28r=-10r Now add 10 r to both sides to get:
\n" ); document.write( "-18r=0 Divide both sides by -18 to result in:
\n" ); document.write( "r=0
\n" ); document.write( "Plug 0 into the original equation to see if it works.
\n" ); document.write( "Make more sense?
