It's impossible. X must be given. I'm in grade 11, I learned this in class last year,and people with Univiersity degrees agree with me, even if people with English degrees don't agree with my spelling. Omg you dropouts.

x-7 = 19 + x
(tansfer numbers so that numerical values and variables are together.)
x – x = -7 +19
(x is found;however, cancels out)
(x is replaced by 0)
0 = -7 +19
0 = 12

.’. eq > or = WTF?

It’s impossible.
X must be given.

After getting a 31 on a the 1st test worth 135, I was ready to drop the class. Then I saw the A in the corner and when I asked (also noticed that I had the 2nd highest score)him, he said <i>"This is the test you should be able to complete at the end of this semester"</i>. He wanted to see what we'd do. How many of us ran around in circles fooling w/ every algebra and proof trick we knew, and how many of us did nothing? He said I got an A because I attempted each problem, tried a few things and then even wrote (at the end of each problem) that I didn't know how to proceed. So I didn't try too much and didn't quit at the beginning. Anyways, this thread is starting to look like the circus of my fellow students' tests in that class.
