Question

Simplify the expression: -x +5 -13 + 12x

Answer 1

Answer:

$x=\frac{8}{11}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$-x +5 -13 + 12x$

To solve the expression, equating it to zero to write it in standard form.

      $-x +5 -13 + 12x=0$

Taking the terms of 'x' to one side and the constants to other side:

          $-x + 12x=-5 +13$

                    $11x=8$

                      $x=\frac{8}{11}$

On simplification of the expression the value of 'x' is

                              $x=\frac{8}{11}$
