Check your result: 7 - 5x = 5 - 7x
Best Answer
Explanation: Consider the given equation.
7- 5x = 5 - 7x
Add to both sides.
7-5x + 7x=5-7x + 7x
⇒7+2x =5
Subtract from both sides.
7+2x -7=5-7
⇒2x=-1
Divide both sides by
2x/2=-2/2
⇒x=-1
Now, check the result.
Substitute x=-1 in the given equation.
7-5x=5-7x
⇒7-5(-1)=5-7(-1)
⇒7+5=5+7
⇒12=12
Hence, result is correct.
Final Answer: The solution of the equation 7-5x=5-7x is x=-1 and the result is checked or verified.
