7x = 20 + 4x

3x=20 x=20/3

subtract 4x from both sides: you should get: 3x=20 then divide both sides by 3 and get: x=20/3

OpenStudy (aroub):

7x-4x=20 3x=20 x=20/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

7x-4x=20+4x-4x (7-4)x=20 3x=20 x=20/3

7x=20+4x Since 4x contains the variable to solve for, move it to the left-hand side of the equation by subtracting 4x from both sides. 7x-4x=20 Since 7x and -4x are like terms, add -4x to 7x to get 3x. 3x=20 Divide each term in the equation by 3. (3x)/(3)=(20)/(3) Simplify the left-hand side of the equation by canceling the common terms. x=(20)/(3)
