What value will complete the set of equations 153x−9−4=12

Question

and x≠
_____?(1 point)
The value that completes the set of equations is x≠

Answer 1

To solve the equation \( 153x - 9 - 4 = 12 \), we start by simplifying the left side.

1. Combine the constants: \[ 153x - 9 - 4 = 12 \implies 153x - 13 = 12 \]

2. Next, add 13 to both sides: \[ 153x = 12 + 13 \implies 153x = 25 \]

3. Now, divide both sides by 153 to find \( x \): \[ x = \frac{25}{153} \]

The problem specifies \( x \neq \) (meaning there is a restriction or value to avoid). Since we found \( x = \frac{25}{153} \), the complete answer is:

\[ x \neq \frac{25}{153} \]

Thus, you can fill in the blank with \( \frac{25}{153} \).
