Hi,

Solving:


20 - 7x = 7x + 13 \\ - 7x - 7x + 20 = 7x - 7x + 13 \\ - 7x - 7x + 20 = 13 \\ - 7x - 7x = 13 - 20 \\ ( - 7 - 7)x = - 14x \\ - 14x = 13 - 20 \\ - (20 - 13) = - 7 \\ - \\ot14x / ( - \\ot14) = - 7 / ( - 14) \\ x = -7 / ( - 14) \\ ( - ) / ( - ) = ( + ) \: \: \: \: \: \: \: rule \\ x = 7 / 14 = (1)/(2) = 0.5

Equation haves a solution.
