Step-by-step explanation:

By transposing method ,

-3=7x-1

-3+1=7x

-2=7x

-2/7=x

Answer 2

Answer:

$x = \frac{ - 2}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution -

Solving the above equation and finding the value of the variable.

$- 3 = 7x - 1 \\ \\ - 3 + 1 = 7x \\ \\ - 2 = 7x \\ \\ \frac{ - 2}{7} = x$

ㅤ

Verification -

Taking x=$\frac{-2}{7}$

$- 3 = 7( \frac{ - 2}{7} ) - 1 \\ \\ - 3 = - 2 - 1 \\ \\ - 3 = - 3$

Hence proved!
