I have a problem -3x-7=-13. When isolating x I divide x by -3 then divide -13 by -3 correct?
1 answer:
Hello!
no, that is not the correct way to isolate x. you were somewhat on the right track however.
here's the correct way:
add 7 to both sides to get -3x = -6
then divide both sides by -3 to get x = 2
I hope this helps, and have a nice day!
