The above solution is correct, if you assume that the equation was

4(-x+7) = 0

Is that the case?

I hope this helps a little more. Thanks for asking.

To simplify the expression 4(-x+7), you can distribute the 4 across the terms inside the parentheses using the distributive property. Multiply 4 by each term individually:

4 * -x + 4 * 7

This gives you:

-4x + 28

Therefore, the simplified expression is -4x + 28.
