To find the value of x in the equation −118 = −5(4+7x) + 7, we will solve it step by step.

−118 = −5(4+7x) + 7

First, let's simplify the expression inside the parentheses:

−118 = −5(4) − 5(7x) + 7

Simplifying further:

−118 = −20 - 35x + 7

Next, let's combine like terms:

−118 = −13 - 35x

To isolate the term with x, we'll move the c...
