What is the solution to - 6+5 (1-x) = - 13-7x

x = - 6

x=-6

Explanation:

-6+5 (1-x) = -13-7x

-6 + (5) (1) + (5) (-x) = -13+-7x (Distribute)

-6+5+-5x=-13+-7x

(-5x) + (-6+5) = -7x-13 (Combine Like Terms)

-5x+-1=-7x-13

-5x-1=-7x-13

Step 2: Add 7x to both sides.

-5x-1+7x=-7x-13+7x

2x-1=-13

Step 3: Add 1 to both sides.

2x-1+1=-13+1

2x=-12

Step 4: Divide both sides by 2.

2x/2=-12/2

x=-6
