-7(x+7)+68=2x-9(x+1)
Since x is on the right-hand side of the equation, switch the sides so it is on the left-hand side of the equation.
2x-9(x+1)=-7(x+7)+68
Multiply -7 by each term inside the parentheses.
2x-9(x+1)=(-7x-49)+68
Add 68 to -49 to get 19.
2x-9(x+1)=-7x+19
Multiply -9 by each term inside the parentheses.
2x+(-9x-9)=-7x+19
Since 2x and -9x are like terms, add -9x to 2x to get -7x.
-7x-9=-7x+19
Since -7x contains the variable to solve for, move it to the left-hand side of the equation by adding 7x to both sides.
-7x-9+7x=19
Since -7x and 7x are like terms, subtract 7x from -7x to get 0.
0-9=19
Remove the 0 from the polynomial; adding or subtracting 0 does not change the value of the expression.
-9=19
Since -9/=19, there are no solutions.
