Answer:
x = -83/6 = -13.833
Explanation:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
13*x-5+171-(x)=0
1.1 Pull out like factors :
12x + 166 = 2 • (6x + 83)
2.2 Solve : 6x+83 = 0
Subtract 83 from both sides of the equation :
6x = -83
Divide both sides of the equation by 6:
x = -83/6 = -13.833
