Question

What is the value of x? 35x – 13 x = x – 1

Answer 1

Explanation:

Combine like terms and get x by itself on one side of the equation.

`35x - 13x = x - 1 \\ 22x - x = - 1 \\ 21x = - 1 \\ x = - (1)/(21)`

Answer:

`x = - (1)/(21)`

Answer 2

35x – 13 x = x – 1

⇒ 22 x = x - 1

⇒ 22x - x = -1

⇒ 21x = -1

⇒ x = -1/21

Thus,the value of x is -1/21
