I’ve already tried to answer this question but somebody already said it was wrong I’m sorry baby
The second step is wrong. What should've been done is to find greatest common factor (gcf) of 1/6 and -2. This is because you cannont add together a number with a variable to a number without a variable. So get the variable by itself by subtracting 1/6 from both sides.
1/5x + 1/6 = -2
___— 1/6_— 1/6
____________
Turn -2 into a fraction and find the gcf of -2 and 6:
1/5x + 1/6 = -2
___— 1/6_— 1/6
____________
1/5x = -2/1 — 1/6 ——> 1/5x = -12/6 — 1/6
1/5x = -13/6
Then divide each side by 1/5 to get the variable by itself; remeber: when dividing a fraction by a fraction, you multiply by the reciprocal.
5/1 • 1/5x = -13/6 • 5/1
x = 65/6
Then, simplify
65/6} 10.83 or 10 83/100
Answer:
A) 
gallons
B) Distance between Town A and Town B is 
miles
Step-by-step explanation:
A)
We know, number of gallons = 
if miles per gallon (mpg) is given as 24 & total distance travelled is 3x miles, then, using formula we have:
Number of Gallons = 
B)
Now, given is number of gallons = 2y & we know mpg is 24; <em>so what is the distance?</em>
We use the same formula and solve for distance (let distance between A and B be "D"):
Answer:n=-83/60 or -1.383
