Answer:

[tex]\boxed{x=-25}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{2}{7} (x+4)=-6[/tex]

→ Multiply everything by 7 to get rid of the fraction

[tex]2(x+4)=-42[/tex]

→ Expand the bracket

[tex]2x+8=-42[/tex]

→ Minus 8 from both sides to isolate 2x

[tex]2x=-50[/tex]

→ Divide both sides by 2 to isolate x

[tex]x=-25[/tex]
