x= -3. you minus 53 from 74 which is 21 then divide 21 by -7

If 74 = 53-7 • x you have to figure out the rest of the problem by working backward.
53 - 7 = 46
So you have to divide 74 and 46 to get x.
74/46 = 1.6086
You then multiply 1.6086 and 46 which is 73.995 which rounds to 74.
53-7 = 46; 74/46 = 1.6086; 1.6086 • 46 = 74

Hope this helped, if you need it explained more just ask!! :)
