Question

Solve for x. 9x - 1 = -11

Answer 1

Answer:

X=-1.1 repeated

Step-by-step explanation:

9x - 1= -11

+1= +1

9x = -10

Divide by 9 on both sides

X = -1.1 repeating

Answer 2

Answer:

- 1 1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

9x - 1 = -11

Add 1 to both sides to eliminate -1 on the left side

9x - 1 + 1 = -11 + 1

9x = -10

Divide both sides by 9 to isolate x

9x/9 = -10/9

x = - 1 1/9
