Answer:
x = -12
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember that ax + bx = (a+b)x
-10x + 9x = 12
Add -10x and 9x together
(-10 + 9)x = 12
-x = 12 (-1x is written as -x, just as 1x is written as x)
÷ -1 both sides
x = -12
I hope this helps. Happy studying. :)
-10x+9x= -1x
-1x=12 -1 divided by 12 equals -12 Therefore x = -12
