Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{6}(30x + 24) - \frac{1}{7}(63 - 7x)[/tex]

Step 2: Simplify

  1. Distribute:                           [tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{6}(30x) + \frac{1}{6}(24) - \frac{1}{7}(63) - \frac{1}{7}(-7x)[/tex]
  2. Multiply:                              [tex]\displaystyle 5x + 4 - 9 + x[/tex]
  3. Rearrange:                          [tex]\displaystyle 5x + x + 4 - 9[/tex]
  4. Combine like terms:          [tex]\displaystyle 6x - 5[/tex]
