What is the undefined value for the equation 14=7x9+4x
?(1 point)

Answer 1

To solve the equation \( 14 = 7 \times 9 + 4x \), we first need to compute the left side.

Calculate \( 7 \times 9 \):
\[
7 \times 9 = 63
\]

Now, substitute this value back into the equation:
\[
14 = 63 + 4x
\]

Next, we will isolate \( 4x \). Subtract 63 from both sides of the equation:
\[
14 - 63 = 4x
\]
\[
-49 = 4x
\]

Now, divide both sides by 4 to solve for \( x \):
\[
x = \frac{-49}{4} = -12.25
\]

So the solution to the equation is:
\[
x = -12.25
\]

There isn't an "undefined" value in this context, as \( x \) is a defined number. If you are looking for a particular value that leads to an undefined situation (like division by zero), that's not applicable to this equation.
