E −2/7

Answer 1

To solve the equation 4 + x/7 = 2, you need to isolate the variable x.

1. First, subtract 4 from both sides of the equation:
4 + x/7 - 4 = 2 - 4
x/7 = -2

2. To get rid of the 7 in the denominator, multiply both sides of the equation by 7:
7*(x/7) = 7*(-2)
x = -14

Therefore, the solution is x = -14.

So the correct response is A) -14.
