Question

$$13x+7=-9-13x$$

Solve for x

$x=-\frac{8}{13}\approx -0.615384615$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Add $13x$ to both sides.

$$13x+7+13x=-9$$

Combine $13x$ and $13x$ to get $26x$.

$$26x+7=-9$$

Subtract $7$ from both sides.

$$26x=-9-7$$

Subtract $7$ from $-9$ to get $-16$.

$$26x=-16$$

Divide both sides by $26$.

$$x=\frac{-16}{26}$$

Reduce the fraction $\frac{-16}{26}$ to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out $2$.

$$x=-\frac{8}{13}$$
