Hey there! :)
Answer:
x = -36.
Step-by-step explanation:
Starting with:
-1 = 5 + x/6
Begin by subtracting 5 from both sides:
-1 - 5 = 5 - 5 + x/6
-6 = x/6
Multiply both sides by 6:
-6 · 6 = x/6 · 6
-36 = x.
x = -36
- 1 = 5 + x/6
Subtract 5 on both sides.
-1 - 5 = x/6
Multiply both sides by 6.
-6 × 6 = x
-36 = x
