What is the value of x in the equation 7x − 27 = 69?

6

−6

96/7

-96/7

Verified Answer :

96/7 because if it was any negative number the whole answer would be thrown off so that brings it down to 6 and 96/7 when you plug 6 in the number is to low and when you plug 96/7 in it works perfectly so the answer is c

Answer:  The correct option is

(C) \(\dfrac{96}{7}.\)

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the value of x in the following equation :

\(7x-27=69~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)\)

To find the value of x, we must solve the given equation.

The solution of equation (i) is as follows :

\(7x-27=69\\\\\Rightarrow 7x=69+27\\\\\Rightarrow 7x=96\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{96}{7}.\)

Thus, the required value of x is \(\dfrac{96}{7}.\)

Option (C) is CORRECT.
