Question:
Solution:
Consider the following equation:
[tex]4-7x=-52[/tex]
Let's see if this equation is true for each x:
For x = 5, we get that:
[tex]4-7(5)=-31\ne-52[/tex]
then x= 5 is NOT a solution of the given equation.
For x = -9, we get that:
[tex]4-7(-9)=4+7(9)=67\ne-52[/tex]
then, x = -9 is NOT a solution of the given equation.
For x= 2, we get that:
[tex]4-7(2)=-10\ne-52[/tex]
then, x = 2 is NOT a solution of the given equation.
For x = -7, we get that:
[tex]4-7(-7)=53\ne-52[/tex]
then, x = -7 is NOT a solution of the given equation.
