Consider the equation .(-22+3x/3x+7)=2

How do you begin isolating the variable x to one side of the equation? Multiply both sides by 3x + 7. Divide both sides by 3x + 7. Multiply both sides by -22 + 3x. Divide both sides by -22 + 3x. _______

The solution of the equation is______

Respuesta :

Answer: The solution of the above equation would be -12.

and First option is correct " Multiply both sides by 3x + 7."

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

[tex]\dfrac{-22+3x}{3x+7}=2[/tex]

First we multiply (3x+7) on both sides , we get

[tex]-22+3x=2(3x+7)[/tex]

And then we will solve it for the value of 'x'.

[tex]-22+3x=6x+14\\\\-22-14=6x-3x\\\\-36=3x\\\\\dfrac{-36}{3}=x\\\\-12=x[/tex]

Hence, the solution of the above equation would be -12.

and First option is correct " Multiply both sides by 3x + 7."
