Hello!
Answer: x=-24 *The answer must have negative sign*
Explanation:
First, you had to do is subtract by 7 from both sides of an equation.
[tex]7-\frac{x}{12}-7=9-7[/tex]
Simplify by equation form.
[tex]-\frac{x}{12}=2[/tex]
Then, you multiply by 12 from both sides of an equation.
[tex]12(-\frac{x}{12})=2*12[/tex]
Simplify, and then multiply by the numbers.
[tex]2*12=24[/tex]
[tex]-x=24[/tex]
Next, divide by -1 from both sides of an equation.
[tex]\frac{-x}{-1}= \frac{24}{-1}[/tex]
And finally simplify.
[tex]24/1=24[/tex]
It change positive to negative sign.
[tex]x=-24[/tex]
Hope this helps!
Thank you!
Have a great day!
