The answer to the question is: Simplifying<span>Qx + 12 = 13x + P
Reorder the terms:
12 + xQ = 13x + P
Reorder the terms:
12 + xQ = P + 13x
Solving
12 + xQ = P + 13x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-13x' to each side of the equation.
12 + -13x + xQ = P + 13x + -13x
Combine like terms: 13x + -13x = 0
12 + -13x + xQ = P + 0
12 + -13x + xQ = P
Add '-12' to each side of the equation.
12 + -13x + -12 + xQ = -12 + P
Reorder the terms:
12 + -12 + -13x + xQ = -12 + P
Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0
0 + -13x + xQ = -12 + P
-13x + xQ = -12 + P
Reorder the terms:
12 + -1P + -13x + xQ = -12 + P + 12 + -1P
Reorder the terms:
12 + -1P + -13x + xQ = -12 + 12 + P + -1P
Combine like terms: -12 + 12 = 0
12 + -1P + -13x + xQ = 0 + P + -1P
12 + -1P + -13x + xQ = P + -1P
Combine like terms: P + -1P = 0
12 + -1P + -13x + xQ = 0
The solution to this equation could not be determined. Hope this helps:)
