Answer:

The number is -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number

  1. Write it out as an algebraic expression: 7x + 4 = -31
  2. Subtract 4 from each side, so it now looks like this: 7x = -35
  3. Divide each side by 7 to cancel out the 7 next to x. It should now look like this: x = -5

I hope this helps!
