Answer 2

We can solve the equation 5−6x=−7 by isolating x.

First, we subtract 5 from both sides of the equation:

5−6x−5=−7−5

This simplifies to:

-6x=−12

Next, we divide both sides of the equation by -6 to solve for x:

-6x/-6 = -12 / -6

This simplifies to:

x = 2

Therefore, the solution to the equation 5−6x=−7 is x=2.
