Question

22. Solve 7x - 9 = 28+ 4(x - 1).
X=-3
X=3
x = 11
X=-11​

Answer 1

Answer:

$x = 11$

Step-by-step explanation:

$7x - 9 = 28 + 4(x - 1) \\ 7x - 9 = 28 + 4x - 4 \\ 7x - 4x = 28 - 4 + 9 \\ 3x = 33 \\ \\ x = \frac{33}{3} \\ \\ x = 11$

Answer 2

Answer:

c) x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation: 7x - 9 = 28 + 4(x - 1)

Steps:

1. Distribute 4 through the parentheses:

7x - 9 = 28 + 4(x) + 4(-1)

7x - 9 = 28 + 4x - 4 [simplify]

7x - 9 = 24 + 4x

2. Subtract 4x from both sides:

7x - 4x - 9 = 24 + 4x - 4x

3x - 9 = 24

3. Add 9 to both sides:

3x - 9 + 9 = 24 + 9

3x = 33

4. Divide both sides by 3:

3x ÷ 3 = 33 ÷ 3

x = 11

5. Check your work:

7x - 9 = 28 + 4(x - 1) [substitute 11 for x]

7(11) - 9 = 28 + 4(11 - 1) [simplify]

77 - 9 = 28 + 4(10) [simplify]

68 = 28 + 40 [add]

68 = 68 ✔
