Answer:
x=[tex]\frac{y+1}{7}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
We want to make x the subject of the formula, which means to solve the formula for x
Here is the given formula:
y=7x-1
Our ultimate goal is to isolate x onto one side
Start by subtracting 7x from both sides
y-7x=-1
Subtract y from both sides to remove it from the left side
-7x=-y-1
Divide both sides by 7
x=[tex]\frac{-y-1}{-7}[/tex]
Simplify (factor -1 out of the numerator and denominator, then cancel it out)
x=[tex]\frac{-1(y+1)}{(-1)(7)}[/tex]
x=[tex]\frac{y+1}{7}[/tex]
Hope this helps!
