Explanation:
Lesson: Finding x
The equation given is 23x + (-1) + 45 = 135
First you would combine like terms:
(-1) + 45
= 44
Next, you would convert the numbers to get 23x alone:
23x + 44 = 135
- 44 = - 44
23x = 91
Then divide each side by 23 to get x alone:
![(23x)/(23) = (91)/(23)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/kq9svukm89rr3l3unux7oedxuev6pz4nmn.png)
