    x = - 1/5

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let's solve for x in the equation given:

    1/x = 6/5x + 1

    Lowest Common Denominator = 5x

    5 = 6 + 5x

    5 - 6 = 5x

    -1 = 5x

    x = - 1/5

    Let's prove x = - 1/5 is correct

    1 / - 1/5 = 6/5 * - 1/5 + 1

    1/1 * - 5/1 = 6/-1 + 1

    -5 = - 6 + 1

    - 5 = - 5

    We proved that x = - 1/5 is correct
