Question

How do you solve `16x + 4= 3x - 3`?

Answer 1

`x=-7/13`

Explanation:

You can start the equation off by trying to move all the numbers with variables to the left. To achieve this, you can subtract `3x` from the right and subtract it from the left. If you did it right, your equation would look like this:

`13x+4=-3`

Then, to make the variable `x` alone on the left side, you can subtract `4` from both sides to get

`13x=-7`

Then you would divide both sides by `13` to get x to become one number which is

`x=-7/13`
