4/7 - x = 6/35
You're trying to get x by itself, so you have to subtract 4/7 from both sides.
-x = 6/35 - 4/7
You need both of the fractions to the right of the equal sign to have the same denominator so that we could simplify them, so multiply 5/5 to -4/7.
-4 /7 × 5/5 = -20/35
So, our new equation is :
-x = 6/35 - 20/35
Simplify.
-x = -14/35
Divide both sides by -1.
x = 14/35
Divide by 7.
x = 2/5

Answer:
inverse operations (KristaKingMath)
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the given line is -3. Since perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other, the slope of the line we need to find is 1/3.
Substituting into point slope form, we get:
y + 6 = ⅓(x+6)
Remember that parallel lines have the same slope.
y=3/7x+11 (in slope intercept form already)
-3x+7y=13 (standard form)
Add 3x to both sides, giving you 7y=3x+13, divide by 7 on both sides, giving
y=3/7x+13/7
Since both equations' slopes' are the same, their graphs will be parallel.
X=15
Just divide 5x by 5 and 75 by 5
