Question

solve the following by method of transposition.
(a) 7(x - 2) - 4(5 - x) = 1​

Answer 1

Answer:

$7x - 14 - 20 + 4x = 1 \\ \\ 11x = 25 \\ \\ x = \frac{25}{11}$

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

7(x - 2 ) - 4 (5 - x) = 1

7x - 14 - 20 + 4x = 1

7x - 34 + 4x = 1

7x + 4x = 1 + 35

11x = 36

x = 36/11

x = 3.27
