Question

PLZ HELP ME THANKS. If 3x-5-6x-2 is equaled to -1. Then how do I "check it"?

Answer 1

Answer:

3(-1)-5-6(-1)-2. You found the value of X, so you need to put it back into the equation to see if it equals out.

Answer 2

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-5-6x-2= -1

-3x -7 = -1

-3x= 7-1

-3x= 6

x= 6/(-2)

x= -3

---------

proof:

3*(-2)- 5- 6*(-2)- 2= -1

-6 -5 +12 -2 = -1

-13+12= -1

-1= -1

done
