1 answer

To solve for x in the equation 7x - 43 = 8, you would first add 43 to both sides of the equation to isolate the term with x.

7x - 43 + 43 = 8 + 43
7x = 51

Then, you would divide both sides by 7 to solve for x.

7x/7 = 51/7
x = 51/7
x = 7.286

Therefore, x is equal to 7.286 in this equation.
