We are given the equation x/4 - 7 = y and the value y = 2. We want to prove that x = 36.
Substituting y = 2 into the equation x/4 - 7 = y, we have:
x/4 - 7 = 2
Adding 7 to both sides of the equation, we get:
x/4 = 2 + 7
Simplifying, we have:
x/4 = 9
Multiplying both sides of the equation by 4, we have:
4 * (x/4) = 4 * (9)
x = 36
Therefore, we have proven that x = 36.
