Solve for x: 7x + 15 = 38

Do you know how to start off?

no

Well, to solve for x, you have to get x alone on one side. To do this, you have to start with "+15+. To move it to the other side of the equal sign, you change the function + to -. Now it is "-15" So you have: 7x = 38-15 Now you solve 38-15 and that equals 23. You now have 7x = 23 Do you know what to do next?
