Answer 2

Answer:

The value x is equal to 197.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is how i solved it, I hope this helped, correct me if I'm wrong :))

So, first we have this algebraic equation.

-x + 247 = 50

1. We must subtract 247 from both sides.

-x + 247 - 247 = 50 - 247

So, we found out that  -x = -197

    2. Finally we should divide both sides by -1.

So, it looks like this: -x ÷ -1 = -197 ÷ -1

The answer is x = 197!
