Question

Write an equation that you could solve using these steps:

Add 7 to both sides. Then, divide both sides by 4.

Explain how you know your answer is right.

Answer 1

\[4x - 7 = 9\]

Answer 2

now lets solve it together so we can find out if its okay or not

Answer 3

try and follow the steps described in the question.

Answer 4

\[4x−7=9\]

Answer 8

hey, so do you know how to solve it?

Answer 9

ight lets see

Answer 10

7 + 7 = 14 & 7 + 9 = 16

Answer 11

okay good so the steps would be formatted like this:

4x - 7 = 9
+7 +7
4x = 16 (because -7 and +7 cancel out)

now you divide both sides by 4 like it said above:

4x = 16
/4 /4

x = 4 (4*4 = 16)

so your answer is x = 4 but you can change 9 into any number as long as the format is
4x - 7 = #

Answer 12

do you understand why all this is true?

Answer 13

nope not realy

Answer 14

Ok so the question asked for an equation that you have to add 7 and divide by 4, and to solve the equation i made (4x - 7 =9) you have to first cancel out the 7 so you add 7 to both sides, and you have to isolate the variable by dividing the 4 next to it.

Answer 15

so it fits the description, the = 9 can be anything it can be =10 or =13 or even =100 but the equation must have 4x - 7 first

Answer 16

oh,ok
