Question

Solve this equation. 23x−15x=x−1

Answer 1

`\huge x = - (1)/(7)`

Explanation:

`23x−15x=x−1`

Simplify the terms on the left side of the equation

`8x = x - 1`

Move x to the left side of the equation

`8x - x = - 1 \\ 7x = - 1`

Divide both sides by 7

`(7x)/(7) = - (1)/(7) \\`

We have the final answer as

`x = - (1)/(7) \\`

Hope this helps you
