Responses

x=7
x equals 7

x=3
x equals 3

x=−7
x equals negative 7

x=−3
x equals negative 3

Answer 1

To solve the equation \( 37x - 4 = -1 \), follow these steps:

1. Start by adding 4 to both sides of the equation: \[ 37x - 4 + 4 = -1 + 4 \] This simplifies to: \[ 37x = 3 \]

2. Next, divide both sides by 37: \[ x = \frac{3}{37} \]

None of the provided response options \( (x=7, x=3, x=-7, x=-3) \) correctly correspond to \( x = \frac{3}{37} \).

If you are looking for integer values, none of the options are correct based on the solution obtained.
