1. Find the value of x when 6-5x = 2x – 7x + 1

Sagot :

We must solve for x the following equation:

[tex]6-5x=2x-7x+1.[/tex]

1) First, we pass the term -5x to the right-hand-side of the equation:

[tex]6=2x-7x+5x+1[/tex]

2) Now, we pass the +1 on the right to the left:

[tex]6-1=2x-7x+5x[/tex]

3) We simplify both sides of the equation:

[tex]5=0[/tex]

After the last simplification, we got an incompatible equation.

So we conclude that the equation for x is an incompatible system, an there are no solutions of x such that the equation
