HELP!! -1=5+x/6

mathslover (mathslover):

Subtract 5 both sides and simplify Can you do this?

mathslover (mathslover):

\(-1-5 = 5-5 + \cfrac{x}{6}\)

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):

is that \(\ -1 = \dfrac{5 + x}{6} \) or \(\ -1 = 5 + \dfrac{x}{6} \) ?

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):

Nope, nvm.

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):

:O That technically works for both, -6 = 5 + x -5 -5 x = -11 -1 = \(\ \dfrac{5 + (-11)}{6} = \dfrac{-6}{6} = -1 \) and then there's mathlovers method

OpenStudy (clamin):

so the final answer is -1??

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):

Erm, nope

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):
