(-x-6)/(x-13)=-6 equation
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the equation:
$$\frac{- x - 6}{x - 13} = -6$$
Multiply the equation sides by the denominator -13 + x
we get:
$$- x - 6 = - 6 x + 78$$
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- x = - 6 x + 84$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$5 x = 84$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 5
x = 84 / (5)
We get the answer: x = 84/5
