Solve for x

135 = -68x - 1

To solve for x, transpose one to the other side and make it positive. Then simplify of possible.

  • 135 = -68x - 1
  • 135 + 1 = -68x
  • 136 = -68x

Divide both sides of the equation by -68 and simplify.

  • 136 = -68x
  • 136/-68 = -68x/-68
  • -2 = x

Answer:

  • The value of x is -2.
