7=3-x/2 what is the steps to solve this problem

x = - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

1st step: switch sides, 3 - x/2 = 7

2nd step: subtract 3 from both sides, 1-x/2-3 = 7-3

3rd step: simplify, - x/2 = 4

4th step: multiply both sides by 2, 2 (-x/2) = 4*2

5th step: simplify, - x = 8

6th step: divide both sides by - 1, - x/-1 = 8/-1

7th step: simplify, x = - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply each side by 2

subtract 3 from each side

multiply each side by - 1
