Your expression is a little unclear, but I am assuming your expression as:
[tex]7+\frac{2x}{4}=5[/tex]
The solution would still clear your concept in anyway.
Answer:
The value of x = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the expression
[tex]7+\frac{2x}{4}=5[/tex]
solving the expression
[tex]7+\frac{2x}{4}=5[/tex]
as 2x/4 = x/2, so
[tex]7+\frac{x}{2}=5[/tex]
subtract 7 from both sides
[tex]7+\frac{x}{2}-7=5-7[/tex]
simplify
[tex]\frac{x}{2}=-2[/tex]
Multiply both sides by 2
[tex]\frac{2x}{2}=2\left(-2\right)[/tex]
simplify
[tex]x=-4[/tex]
Thus, the value of x = -4
