1 |
Simplify the equation |
\$ -7(x-a)=14 \$ |
2 |
Given equation |
\$ -7(x-a)=14 \$ |
3 |
After eleminating the brackets |
\$ -7x+7a=14 \$ |
4 |
Adding "-7a" on both sides of the equation |
\$ -7x+7a-7a=14-7a \$ |
5 |
After cancellation we get |
\$ -7x=14-7a \$ |
6 |
Dividing on both sides by "7" we get |
\$ (-7x)/7=(14-7a)/7 \$ |
7 |
After simplification we get |
\$ (-7x)/7=(14/7)+(-7a/7) \$ |
8 |
After cancellation we get |
\$ -x=2-a \$ |
9 |
Multipling "-1" on both sides of the equation |
\$ (-1)×(-x)=(-1)×(2-a) \$ |
10 |
After Multiplication we get |
\$ x=(-1)×(2)+(-1)×(-a) \$ |
11 |
Hence the solution of the given equation is |
\$ x=-2+a \$ |
