Question

Solve for x. x+2/3=−1/6

Answer 1

Hello! :)

First, Simplify both sides of the equation

x + 2/3= -1/6

Next, Subtract 2/3 from both sides

x + 2/3 - 2/3 = -1/6 - 2/3

x= -5/6 (ANSWER)

Hope this helped you!

Answer 2

-5/6

Explanation:

`x+(2)/(3) = (-1)/(6)`

By transposing 2/3 towards the RHS we get,

`x=(-1)/(6) -(2)/(3)`

`x=-(1)/(6) -(2X2)/(3X2) =-(1)/(6) -(4)/(6) =(-5)/(6)`
