7x + 12 = - 16
Transpose 12
7x + 12 - 12 = - 16 - 12
7x = - 28
Divide both sides of the equation by 7

1.2x= 2.3x - 2.2
Transpose 1.2x
1.2x - 1.2x = 2.3x - 2.2 - 1.2x
0 = 1.1x - 2.2
Transpose 2.2
0 + 2.2 = 1.1x - 2.2 + 2.2
2.2 = 1.1x
Divide both sides of the equation by 1.1
2.2 / 1.1 = 1.1x / 1.1
2.2 / 1.1 = x

4x + 21 = 7(x + 9)
The distributive property on the right side of the equation.
4x + 21 = 7x + 63
Transpose 4x
4x + 21 - 4x = 7x + 63 - 4x
Collecting like terms

Transpose 63
21 - 63 = 3x + 63 - 63

7x=-28 => x= - 28/7
1.2x - 2.3x =-22 => - 1.1x = - 22 => x=22/1.1 minus cancel each other
4x+21=7x+63 => - 3x = 42 => x= - 42/3 => x= -14
x-4= +- 25 x-4=+15 ,, x-4 = -15
x=19 ,,, x= - 11
5x+11 = +-9 5x+11=9 ,, 5x+11 = -9

7x+12=-16 --> 7x = -16-12 = -28 , so x = -28/7 = -4
1.2x = 2.3x -2.2
-1.1x = -2.2 --> x = 2
4x+21 =7x + 63
-3x = 42 --> x = -14
| x - 4 | = 15
x-4 = 15 --> x = 15+4 = 19
x-4 = - 15 --> x= -15+4 = -11
Remaining problems solved the same way

7x + 12 = -16
7x = -16 -12
7x = -28
x = -28/7
x = -4
#2
1.2x = 2.3x - 2.2
1.2x - 2.3x = -2.2
x (1.2 - 2.3) = -2.2
x (-1.10) = -2.2
x = -2.2 / -1.10
x = 2
#3
4x + 21 = 7 (x + 9)
4x + 21 = 7x + 63
4x - 7x = 63 - 21
x (4 - 7) = 42
x (-3) = 42
x = 42 / -3
x = -14
#4 (There are two Solutions)
|x - 4| = 15
x - 4 = 15
x = 15 + 4
x = 19

| x - 4 | = 15
"The absolute value of (x-4) is equal to 15"
The absolute value is the value without the sign.
Therefore, there could be two answers:
x - 4 = 15
x -4 + 4 = 15 + 4 (added 4 to both sides)
x = 19
OR
- (x - 4) = 15
-x + 4 = 15 (multiply the - through the parenthesis)
-x + 4 - 4 = 15 - 4 (take away 4 from both sides)
-x = 11
-1 * -x = -1 * 11 (multiply both sides by -1)
x = -11
Both are correct answers. This is often the case with absolute values.

1) 7x=-16-12
x=-28/7
2)1.2x-2.3x=-2.2
-1.1x=-2.2
x=2.2/1.1=2
3)4x=7x+63-21
-3x=24x=-8
4)|x-4|=15 means x-4=15 or x-4 =-15 two possible solutions
x=19;x=-11
do the rest also in the same way,
make 'x' as the subject
and find it

upload a million.2 + 6.8 = 8 now you have 8+w=12 subtract 8 on the two facets to get w= 4 and thats your answer right that's the entire equation a million.2+6.8+w = 12 8+w=12 w=4 you ought to characteristic in that u subtracted 8 from the two facets

Are you serious? Are you in summer school because you didn't learn this stuff last year?
Seems like 3 months ago you were asking about quadratic equations.
