4- 7x = 23- 5
4 - 7x = 18
-4 = -4
-7x = 14
/-7 = /-7
X = -2
3x = -6
Th answer is c. quotient, because it has to do with multiplication and not addition.
It would be c
ax-5=b What you have to do is get a to be by itself
So you would add 5 to both sides:
ax-5(+5)=b(+5) = ax=b+5
And then divide x by both sides. You divide because a is multiplied by x on the left side, so to move it to the other side you’d have to do the opposite and divide:
ax /x=b+5 /x
Answer is C ... a=(b+5) /x
