    x = 3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given

    4 (7 - x) = 16 (divide both sides by 4)

    7 - x = 4 (subtract 7 from both sides)

    - x = - 3 (multiply both sides by - 1)

    x = 3

    x = 3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Distribute into the parenthesis.

    4 (7) - 4 (x) = 16

    Multiply.

    28-4x = 16

    Subtract to both sides.

    28-4x = 16

    -28 - 28

    Then, divide both sides by 4 to isolate the variable.

    -4x = - 12

    -4 - 4

    x = 3
