2/3x+5=1 what is the solution to the equation shown?

x = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x + 5 = 1 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

x = - 4

Multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction

2x = - 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - 6

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
