if positive: x=-4
if negative: x=0
Step-by-step explanation:
confused on the last 1 if its negative or positive.
if positive
6 (x+1) - 5x=8+2 (x+1)
distribute outside of parenthesis
6x + 6 - 5x = 8 + 2x + 2
combine like terms
1x + 6 = 10 + 2x
move x all to one side
6 = 10 + 1x
move 10 to the other side
-4 = x
if negative
6 (x+1) - 5x=8+2 (x-1)
distribute outside of parenthesis
6x + 6 - 5x = 8 + 2x - 2
combine like terms
1x + 6 = 6 + 2x
move x to one side
6 = 6 + x
move 6
0=x
