When solving negative one over eight (x + 35) = −7, what is the correct sequence of operations? (5 points) multiply each side by negative one over eight , add 35 to each side multiply each side by negative one over eight , subtract 35 from each side multiply each side by −8, subtract 35 from each side multiply each side by −8, add 35 to each side

The correct answer choice is:  
______________________________________________
  [C]:  "Multiply each side by −8, subtract 35 from each side" .

Explanation:
_______________________________________________
Given:  " (x + 35) = -7 " ; 

We can START by multiply each side of the equation by "-8"  to completely get rid of the ""  fraction on the "left-hand-side" of the equation:

since:  "  * -8 = 1 ;  and:  "1" , multiplied by any given value, is equal to that given value; so in effect, the "1" becomes eliminated.

"  * -8 =  

*  =

=  = 1 .

So,  given:  " (x + 35) = -7 " ; ; 

We multiply each side of the equation by "-8" ; 

→    -8 * { (x + 35) }  =  -7 * {-8) " ; 

→    1 (x + 35)  = 56 ; 

     →  x + 35 = 56 ;

Then, we SUBTRACT "35" (FROM EACH SIDE OF THE EQUATION) ;  to isolate "x" on ONE SIDE OF THE EQUATION; and to solve for "x" ;

     →  x + 35 − 35 = 56 − 35 ;

     →  x = 21 .

So, as explained, the correct answer is:

   Answer choice:  [C]:

     "Multiply each side by −8, subtract 35 from each side" .
