Respuesta :
x = - [tex]\frac{8}{3}[/tex]
isolate - 6x by subtracting 9 from both sides
- 6x = 16 ( divide both sides by - 6 )
x = [tex]\frac{16}{-6}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{8}{3}[/tex]
The aim is to isolate x on one side of the equation
-6x + 9 = 25
Subtract 9 from each side:-
-6x + 9 - 9 = 25 - 9
-6x + 0 = 16
Now divide both sides by -6:-
x = 16 / -6
x = -2 2/3 (answer)
