Question

$$5 x + 2 = 1$$

Solve for x

$x=-\frac{1}{5}=-0.2$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract $2$ from both sides.

$$5x=1-2$$

Subtract $2$ from $1$ to get $-1$.

$$5x=-1$$

Divide both sides by $5$.

$$x=\frac{-1}{5}$$

Fraction $\frac{-1}{5}$ can be rewritten as $-\frac{1}{5}$ by extracting the negative sign.

$$x=-\frac{1}{5}$$
