Xz+y+1=z. given
y+1=z-xz. subtraction property of equality
y+1=z(1-x) distributive property of multiplication over addition/factoring
(1+y)/(1-x) = z division property of required, given x≠1
The second step is wrong. What should've been done is to find greatest common factor (gcf) of 1/6 and -2. This is because you cannont add together a number with a variable to a number without a variable. So get the variable by itself by subtracting 1/6 from both sides.
1/5x + 1/6 = -2
___— 1/6_— 1/6
____________
Turn -2 into a fraction and find the gcf of -2 and 6:
1/5x + 1/6 = -2
___— 1/6_— 1/6
____________
1/5x = -2/1 — 1/6 ——> 1/5x = -12/6 — 1/6
1/5x = -13/6
Then divide each side by 1/5 to get the variable by itself; remeber: when dividing a fraction by a fraction, you multiply by the reciprocal.
5/1 • 1/5x = -13/6 • 5/1
x = 65/6
Then, simplify
65/6} 10.83 or 10 83/100
The amount to be paid in rent after 2 years if the rent as of now is $3,000 will be; $3,213.675
The question allows that we choose the amount being paid as rent as of now.
Let the rent paid as of now be; $3,000
In essence; after the first year; the amount increases by 3.5% to become;
After the second year; we have;
Ultimately; the amount to be paid after 2 years will be; $3,213.675.
When given the opportunity to change rent contracts;
- A situation that will be beneficial would be a 3.5% reduction in rent per year
- A situation that will not be beneficial would be a 7% increase in rent per year.

Take this example (cause it's easy to explain)
10+5x=15x
To solve it we have to minus five on both side. We have to do this because we need to isolate the variable (in this case x) on the one side so we can divide and solve.
You would -5x (inverse from positive 5) from both sides on this because whatever you do to one side you have to do to the others to make it equal. In this case the answer would be x=1 (again cause it's easy lol.)
I hope this helps you!
