If 7 x 3 19 then x 7 3 227 167 163SolutionGive equation i
If 7 x + 3 = 19 then x = 7 3 22/7 16/7 16/3
Solution
Give equation is f(x)=7x+3
Solve for x, subtract 3 on both sides. We get,
f(x)-3=7x+3-3
f(x)-3=7x
Now, divide with 7 on both sides. We get,
(f(x)-3)/7=x
But the given function f(x)=19
Then, x=19-3/7=16/7
Therefore, x=16/7.
(or)
Given that 7x+3=19
By using the subtraction property, subtract 3 on both sides. We get,
7x+3-3=19-3
7x=16
Now, divide with 7 on both sides. We get
x=16/7
Therefore, x=16/7.
