1 answer

To solve the equation 4 + x/7 = 2:

1. Subtract 4 from both sides to isolate x/7 on one side of the equation:
x/7 = 2 - 4
x/7 = -2

2. Multiply both sides of the equation by 7 to get rid of the fraction:
7 * (x/7) = 7 * (-2)
x = -14

The solution to the equation is x = -14. Therefore, the answer is A) -14-14.
