Alg 2

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

−(1+7x)=6(−7−x)+36

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−(1+7x)=6(−7−x)+36

−7x+−1=(6)(−7)+(6)(−x)+36(Distribute)

−7x+−1=−42+−6x+36

−7x−1=(−6x)+(−42+36)(Combine Like Terms)

−7x−1=−6x+−6

−7x−1=−6x−6

Step 2: Add 6x to both sides.

−7x−1+6x=−6x−6+6x

−x−1=−6

Step 3: Add 1 to both sides.

−x−1+1=−6+1

−x=−5

Step 4: Divide both sides by -1.
