Question

13+x+195=13(x+15)...

Answer 1

First, let's expand the right side.  Now our equation is

$13+x+195=13x+195$

Now, we gather all the terms with x in it on the left side, and the numbers without x on the right.  We get:

$-12x=-13$

And then we can make this

$12x=13$

We divide both sides by 12 to get x on its own, so x = 13/12 or 1.08

Answer 2

step 1 Simplify:x+208=13x+195
Step 2: Subtract 13x from both sides.x+208−13x=13x+195−13x−12x+208=195
Step 3: Subtract 208 from both sides.−12x+208−208=195−208−12x=−13S
Step 4: Divide both sides by -12.−12x−12=−13−12x=1312

Answer:x=13/12
