42=-x/7+29

Answer 1

To solve for x:

42 = -x/7 + 29

First, let's get rid of the fraction by multiplying both sides by 7:

7 * 42 = 7 * (-x/7 + 29)

294 = -x + 203

Now, let's isolate the variable x by subtracting 203 from both sides:

294 - 203 = -x + 203 - 203

91 = -x

Finally, let's solve for x by multiplying both sides by -1:

-1 * 91 = -1 * -x

-91 = x

Therefore, x is equal to -91.
