-7=6x-1 +1 +1 *Move the constants to one side and the variable to the other* ----------- -6=6x --- --- 6 6 x=-1
*-7+1=-6 due to rules saying that if a negative number is added to a positive number, it will be subtracted and if the negative number is higher than the positive number, then the sum will be negative*
*We then divide by the number with the variable so we can isolate it.*
If ken makes $14,500 in 5 months that means he make 2,900 in a month. 24 times $2,900 is $69,600 so the answer is $69,600. He can expect $69,600 is two years.
