Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

7(2 - 6x) = -196

14 - 42x = -196

14 - 42x - 14 = -196 - 14

-42x = -210

-42x/-42 = -210/-42

x = 5

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

7(2 - 6x) = -196                Remove the brackets

7*2 - 7*6x = - 196

14 - 42x = - 195               Subtract 14 from both sides

-42x = - 196 - 14

-42x = - 210                    Divide by 42

x = - 210 / - 42

x = 5
