Question

What is 2/3x + 5 = 1 ??

Answer 1

To solve for x in this equation, you can follow these steps:

Subtract 5 from both sides: 2/3x = -4

Multiply both sides by 3/2 to cancel out the denominator on the left side: x = -6

So the solution for x is -6

So, 2/3x + 5 = 1 becomes 2/3(-6) + 5 = -4 + 5 = 1
