You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2x+(3/4)(4x+16)=7
First, you distribute the 3/4 to the 4x and the 16.
2x+(3/4)(4x)+(3/4)(16)=7
2x+3+12=7
Then you add the 3 and the 12.
2x+15=7
Then you move the 15 from the left to the right (subtract it from the 7.
2x=7-15
2x=-8
Finally you divide the 2 to both sides.
x=-8/2
x=-4
The final answer is -4.
