What is the value of x in the equation StartFraction 4 Over 7 EndFraction (StartFraction 21 Over 8 EndFraction x + one-half) = negative 2 (StartFraction 1 Over 7 EndFraction minus StartFraction 5 Over 28 EndFraction x)

For each proportion find the unknown number x 1/5/8=×/15

Follow these steps using the algebra tiles to solve the equation −5x + (−2) = −2x + 4. 1. add 5 positive x-tiles to both sides and create zero pairs. 2. add 4 negative unit tiles to both sides and create zero pairs. 3. divide the unit tiles evenly among the x-tiles. x =
