Question

Please solve, 1-2x= -1+8+8x-8x​

Answer 1

Answer: $x=-3$

Simplify both sides of the equation

$1+-2x=-1+8+8x+-8x$

$-2x+1=(8x+-8x)+(-1+8)$ (Combine Like Terms)

$-2x+1=7$

Subtract 1 from both sides

$-2x+1-1=7-1\\-2x=6$

Divide both sides by -2

$-2x/-2=6/-2\\x=-3$

Answer 2

Answer:

$\Huge \boxed{x=-3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$1-2x= -1+8+8x-8x$

Combining like terms.

$1-2x= 7$

Subtracting 1 from both sides.

$-2x= 7-1$

$-2x=6$

Dividing both sides by -2.

$x=-3$
