Well, the easy way to do this is just divide -112 by 7.

OpenStudy (prof_cutederp):

ohhhhhh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Dividing both sides of the equation by 7 is all that is needed.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Example: When the answer is on the right like 2x = 4 Always divide that number by the number on the left.
