Answers
GPT 3.5
To simplify -7 + (x+1) ÷ (2-15), we start by simplifying the expression within the parentheses:
-7 + (x + 1) ÷ (-13)
Next, we multiply (x + 1) with -1/13:
-7 + (-1/13)(x + 1)
Which can be further simplified as:
-7 + (-x/13 - 1/13)
Now, we have:
-7 - x/13 - 1/13
Combining like terms, we get:
(-7 - 1/13) - x/13
Finally, we simplify:
-7 - 1/13 - x/13
-7 + (x + 1) ÷ (-13)
Next, we multiply (x + 1) with -1/13:
-7 + (-1/13)(x + 1)
Which can be further simplified as:
-7 + (-x/13 - 1/13)
Now, we have:
-7 - x/13 - 1/13
Combining like terms, we get:
(-7 - 1/13) - x/13
Finally, we simplify:
-7 - 1/13 - x/13
