Let x represent the unknown number.

7x - x = -48

Group like terms together.

6x = -48

Divide both sides by 6.

x = -8

Hence, the number is negative eight.

x=-8

Step-by-step explanation:

What I did was set up my equation and my equation was 7x-x=-48. My second step was to combine like terms and then I had 6x=-48 lastly I divided both sides by 6x then my final answer was x=-8.

on a coordinate grid, point a is at (−4.0, −2.4) and point b is at (4.0, −2.4). point b is a reflection of point a across the –axis. input either a lowercase x or i think is the right awnser
