Question

Use inverse operations to solve equation 15=x/6-1​

Answer 1

Answer:

x=90.

Step by step explanation:

To solve the expression $15=\frac{x}{6}-1$, and obtaining a value for x we can do the following:

1. Add 1 both sides of the equation. This will result in $15+1=\frac{x}{6}-1+1$⇒$16=\frac{x}{6}$.
2. Multiply both sides by 6, which yields $15\times6=\frac{x}{6}\times6$. This results in $90=x$.
