Solution - Linear equations with one unknown

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                     -7^2*x-(5)=0 

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  (0 -  (72 • x)) -  5  = 0 

Step  2  :

Step  3  :

Pulling out like terms :

 3.1     Pull out like factors :

   -49x - 5  =   -1 • (49x + 5) 

Equation at the end of step  3  :

  -49x - 5  = 0 

Step  4  :

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

 4.1      Solve  :    -49x-5 = 0 

 Add  5  to both sides of the equation : 
                      -49x = 5
Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) :  49x = -5


Divide both sides of the equation by 49:
                     x = -5/49 = -0.102
