How do I solve this problem:

-s+4=7s-3

So in equations, you must do to one side what you do to the other so that it will be equal

so - s+4=7s-3

so add s to both sides

s-s+4=7s-3+s or 4=8s-3

you the add 3 to both sides

3+4=8s-3+3 or 7=8s

then divide both sides by 8 and get

7/8=s

When solving equations like this, the most important thing is to keep it balanced, for example multiplying both sides by 3 or adding 5 to each expression.

-s+4=7s-3

We add 3 to both sides and get:

-s+7=7s

Now we add s to both sides

7=8s

We divide both sides by 8

7/8=s
