Solve for x : 9x+16=6x+1 .(1 point)

Answer 1

To solve for x, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation.

9x + 16 = 6x + 1

First, let's move the 6x term to the left side by subtracting 6x from both sides:

9x - 6x + 16 = 6x - 6x + 1

This simplifies to:

3x + 16 = 1

Next, let's move the constant term (16) to the right side by subtracting 16 from both sides:

3x + 16 - 16 = 1 - 16

This simplifies to:

3x = -15

Finally, we can solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by 3:

3x/3 = -15/3

This simplifies to:

x = -5

Therefore, the solution is x = -5.
