Question

-x/6 + 6 = 32
What is the answer and how do I solve it

Answer 1

x= -120

Explanation:

-x/6+6+6=32

1. Use -a/b=a/-b= -a/-b to rewrite the fraction.
2. -x/-6+6+6=32
3. Add the two 6's then you get 12
4. -x/-6+12=32
5. Multiply both sides with the equation by 6
6. -x+72=192
7. Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its side
8. -x=192+72
9. Subtract the numbers, -x=192-72
10. -x=120
11. Change the signs on both sides of the equation
12. You have your answer it is x= -120
