To solve the equation (-11x – 1 = -8x – 13), follow these steps:
1. Get all terms involving (x) on one side: Add (8x) to both sides:
[
-11x + 8x – 1 = -13
]
This simplifies to:
[
-3x – 1 = -13
]
2. Isolate the term with (x): Add (1) to both sides:
[
-3x = -12
]
3. Solve for (x): Divide both sides by (-3):
[
x = 4
]
Thus, the solution is (x = 4). You can check by substituting (4) back into the original equation to verify both sides are equal.
