help

OpenStudy (marziman):

What do you need help with? Have you been kidnapped? Are you in danger? Have you been assaulted? Are you hurt? Have you or a loved one been diagnosed with mesothelioma?

OpenStudy (idkanything):

um...

OpenStudy (will.h):

@marziman have you hit your head real hard

OpenStudy (narissa):

OpenStudy (marziman):

Only slightly.

OpenStudy (marziman):

This equation is quite simple.

OpenStudy (marziman):

I'll start you off

OpenStudy (will.h):

Coefficient is the number besides the variable so 2

OpenStudy (marziman):

I believe the answer comes out to a fraction.

OpenStudy (narissa):

thanks

OpenStudy (will.h):

It would if there was parentheses

OpenStudy (marziman):

It's supposed to go into parentheses. Because you start it off as 4/7=21/x-3

OpenStudy (3mar):

\[\frac{ 2x }{ 7 }+2=\frac{ 2x }{ 7 }+\frac{ 14 }{ 7 }=\frac{ 2x+14 }{ 7 }\] \[=\frac{ 2x+14 }{ 7 }=\frac{ 2(x+7) }{ 7 }\]

OpenStudy (narissa):

so 7 is the answer or2?

OpenStudy (narissa):

@3mar

OpenStudy (3mar):

Well, I am here.

OpenStudy (3mar):

Oh sorry I thought the question says: simplify So do you need the coefficient of x?

OpenStudy (3mar):

@narissa

OpenStudy (narissa):

yes

OpenStudy (3mar):

it would be \[\frac{ 2 }{ 7 }\]

OpenStudy (3mar):

Did you get it?

OpenStudy (narissa):

yes thanks
