Solve the following equation. then place the correct answer in the box provided. answer in terms of a mixed number. 7(2x + 6) = 1

Hey there! :D

7(2x+6)=1

Use the distributive property. Multiply each number by each other.

7*2x= 14x  7*6= 42

14x+42=1

Subtract 42 on both sides. 

14x= -41

Divide both sides by 14. 

We know that 14 goes into -41 almost three times.

14*3= 42 (there is one left over)

-2 13/14 (we just need one more part of 14) 

That is the simplified number.

I hope this helps!
