Answer:
x=-36 OR x=-11 depending on the fraction on the right side (read explanation)
Explanation:
Not sure how the fraction goes so I'll just solve both:
1. -1= 5+ (x/6)
First we will move the 5 to the other side so we can get rid of the fraction. To do this we will subtract 5 from both sides:
-1 -5 = 5 -5 + (x/6)
This leaves us with:
-6 = x/6
Now we can multiply both sides by 6 to get rid of the fraction:
-6 * 6 = x/6*6
This gives us:
-36 = x
So x in this equation = -36
2. -1 = (5+x)/6
First we can get rid of the fraction by multiplying each side by 6:
-1*6=(5+x)/6*6
This gives us:
-6=5+x
Now we can just subtract 5 from both sides which will give us our x value:
-6 -5 = 5 -5 +x
-11 = x
So x = -11 in this equation.
Hope this helped!
