Question

Is -x the same thing as -1

Answer 1

Yes, it is because x basically means 1, so -x is the same thing as 1

Answer 2

Answer:

Well lets say this.

U have an equation, down below

x + -2x=6

If you try and solve this You would want to find X, but theirs no number in front of x so it might be hard for you to figure out...But... There is always an invisible 1 in front of the X

So you have -x and -1 and your wondering if there the same

I would say NO because there is a 1 infront of the -x and you just have -1 if it was -1x and -1x then yes it would be the same!

Sorry if this didnt make any sense but I hope I helped!!
