Solve for x. In the equation 9x +1/3= x-13

Step-by-step explanation:

9x+=x-13

9x*3+1/3=x-13

27x-1/3=x-13

27x-1=3(x-13)

27x-1=3x-39

27x-3x=-39+1

24x=-38

x=-38/24

x=-19/12

x = -

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

9x + = x - 13 ( multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction )

27x + 1 = 3x - 39 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

24x + 1 = - 39 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

24x = - 40 ( divide both sides by 24 )

x = = -
