Question

Solve the equation. -10x+1+7x=37x=-15 x=-12x=12x=15

Answer 1

B. x= -12

Explanation:

Answer 2

The given equation is

`-10x+1+7x=37`

Subtracting 7x from 10x, we get

`1-3x=37`

Subtracting 1 from both sides, we get

`1-3x-1=37-1`

`-3x=36`

Dividing both sides by -3, we get

`-(3x)/(-3)=(36)/(-3)`

`x=-12`

Hence the answer is x=-12.
