Question 255388


{{{4(3x+7)=7}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{12x+28=7}}} Distribute.



{{{12x=7-28}}} Subtract {{{28}}} from both sides.



{{{12x=-21}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x=(-21)/(12)}}} Divide both sides by {{{12}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=-7/4}}} Reduce.

Answer:


So the solution is {{{x=-7/4}}}
