Question

Solve 13x + 14 = 12x -5 (make sure to type the number only)

Answer 1

x= -19

Explanation:

13x+14=12x−5

Subtract 12x from both sides.

13x+14−12x=−5

Combine 13x and −12x to get x.

x+14=−5

Subtract 14 from both sides.

x=−5−14

Subtract 14 from −5 to get −19

x=−19

Answer 2

x = -19

Explanation:

13x + 14 = 12x - 5

subtract 12x from both sides

x + 14 = -5

subtract 14 from both sides

x = -19
