HELP PLS ITS ALGEBRA 1

Answer 1

`- (2)/(6)`

Explanation:

Use distributive property to simplify both sides.

`(1)/(6) (1 - 6x) = - (1)/(3) ( 6x + (1)/(2) )`

Use the Golden Rule of Algebra: (What we do to one side, we must do to the other).

`(1)/(6 ) - x = - 2x - (1)/(6)`

`(1)/(6) = - x - (1)/(6)`

`(2)/(6 ) = - x`

`x = - (2)/(6)`

Answer 2

Explanation:

`(1)/(6)`(1-6x) = -
`(1)/(3)`(6x+
`(1)/(2)`)

distribute in the fractions

`(1)/(6)` - 1x = -2x -
`(1)/(6)`

subtract
`(1)/(6)` from both sides

-
`(1)/(6)`+
`(1)/(6)`-1x = -2x -
`(1)/(6)`-
`(1)/(6)`

-1x = -2x -
`(2)/(6)`

-x = -2x -
`(1)/(3)`

`(1)/(3)` = -2x + x

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

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

x = -
`(1)/(3)`

see? :/
