Answer 1

What you want to first is substitute the numbers in for the variables in the equation

Since b= -5 , we will plug it in for -b

-5 + c = -13x

Now plug in -8 for c

-5 + (-8) = -13x

Add the numbers on the left side, which gives you -13.

-13 = -13x

Lastly, divide both sides by -13x, which will give you 1.

So x = 1
