7x + 24 = - 21
I dont understand what im doing wrong!!! -
ok, so you want to get the numbers on one side, and the x's on the other -
subtract 24 from both sides, so you get
7x = -45
divide -45 by 7, and you get the wrong answer!!!!!

7x = - 21 - 24
7x = - 45
x = - 45 / 7 (IS correct answer!)

Actually, you're correct.
The answer is in fraction: x = -45/7

i agree to all of them, you got a correct solution.
maybe if you give us the supposed right answer, then maybe we can come up with a new set of equation.
