x = 6/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Rearrange unknown terms to the left side of the equation:
7x − 2x = −1 + 7
Combine like terms:
5x = −1 + 7
Calculate the sum or difference:
5x = 6
Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of variable:
x = 6 ÷ 5
Calculate the product or quotient:
x = 1.2
Express the number in fractions:
x= 6/5
Answer:
x = 6/5
