Question

Solve.

Answer 1

$123x-23(-1+x)=14$ 

$123x-23(x-1)=14$ 

$123x-23x+23=14$

$100x+23=14$ 

$100x=14-23$ 

$100x=-9$ 

$x=- \dfrac{9}{100}$

Answer 2

123x - 23(-1 + x) = 14

Simplify.

123x + 23 - 23x = 14

Subtract 23 from both sides.

123x - 23x = 14 - 23

Simplify.

100x = - 9

Divide both sides by 100.

x = -9/100
