Question

$$\frac { 7 x - 1 } { x + 6 } = \frac { 6 x } { x + 6 }$$

Solve for x

$x=1$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Variable $x$ cannot be equal to $-6$ since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by $x+6$.

$$7x-1=6x$$

Subtract $6x$ from both sides.

$$7x-1-6x=0$$

Combine $7x$ and $-6x$ to get $x$.

$$x-1=0$$

Add $1$ to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.

$$x=1$$
