5x−12−6x=−10x+7−1
Step 1: Combine like terms Response area,
Step 2: Get x-terms on same side of equation Response area
Step 3: Get constants on same side of equation Response area
Step 4: Get the x by itself by using the inverse operation
Step 1: Combine like terms
5x + (-6x) - (-10x) = -12 + 7 - 1
Step 2: Get x-terms on same side of equation
5x - 6x + 10x = -12 + 7 - 1
Step 3: Get constants on same side of equation
9x = -6
Step 4: Get the x by itself by using the inverse operation
9x / 9 = -6 / 9
x = -2/3
are you sure
Apologies for the mistake. Let's go through the steps again.
Step 1: Combine like terms
5x - 6x + 10x = -12 + 7 - 1
Step 2: Get x-terms on the same side of the equation
9x = -6 + 7 - 1
Step 3: Get constants on the same side of the equation
9x = 0
Step 4: Get the x by itself by using the inverse operation
x = 0/9
x = 0
you can only use the equations from this bank: -1x-12=-10x+6, 5-18x=-3x-1,1x-12=10x+6,-12=-11+6,9x-12=6,-12=-9x+6,-18=9x,-6=-9x,-18=-9x,x=0,x=1,x=2,x=-2
My apologies for the confusion. Let's go through the steps again using the given equations:
Step 1: Combine like terms
-1x - 12 = -10x + 6
Step 2: Get x-terms on the same side of the equation
-1x + 10x = 6 + 12
9x = 18
Step 3: Get constants on the same side of the equation
9x = 18
Step 4: Get the x by itself by using the inverse operation
x = 18/9
x = 2
The solution to the equation is x = 2.
please explain i dont have these answers in my word bank
To solve the equation 5x−12−6x=−10x+7−1, follow these steps:
Step 1: Combine like terms
Combine the x terms on both sides of the equation. On the left side, combine 5x and -6x to get -x. On the right side, combine -10x and 0x (since there is no x term) to get -10x.
The equation becomes: -x - 12 = -10x + 7 - 1
Step 2: Get x-terms on the same side of the equation
To get the x terms on one side of the equation, subtract -10x from both sides.
The equation becomes: -x + 10x - 12 = 7 - 1
Simplifying, we get: 9x - 12 = 7 - 1
Step 3: Get constants on the same side of the equation
To get the constants on one side of the equation, add 12 to both sides.
The equation becomes: 9x - 12 + 12 = 7 - 1 + 12
Simplifying, we get: 9x = 18
Step 4: Get the x by itself by using the inverse operation
To isolate x, divide both sides of the equation by 9.
The equation becomes: 9x/9 = 18/9
Simplifying, we get: x = 2
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 2.
