4 x + 7 = 6 x – 5

Answer 1

Answer:

Given 4x+7=6x-5

addition property so 4x+12=6x

then subtraction property so 2x=12

divison property x=6

All are equality

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 7 = 6x - 5

subtract 7 from both sides (Subtraction Property)

4x = 6x -12

subtract 6x from both sides (Subtraction Property)

-2x = -12

divide by -2 (Division Property)

x = 6
