x=

Answer 1

`123x-23(-1+x)=14`


`123x-23(x-1)=14`


`123x-23x+23=14`


`100x+23=14`


`100x=14-23`


`100x=-9`


`x=- (9)/(100)`

Answer 2

123x - 23(-1 + x) = 14

Simplify.

123x + 23 - 23x = 14

Subtract 23 from both sides.

123x - 23x = 14 - 23

Simplify.

100x = - 9

Divide both sides by 100.

x = -9/100
