x/5-7=2q for x
Add 7 to each side:
x/5 -7 + 7 = 2q + 7
Cancel the 7's on the left side, we get:
x/5 = 2q + 7
Cross multiply the 5:
x = 5(2q + 7)
x = 10q + 35
Add 7 to each side:
x/5 -7 + 7 = 2q + 7
Cancel the 7's on the left side, we get:
x/5 = 2q + 7
Cross multiply the 5:
x = 5(2q + 7)
x = 10q + 35
