To solve for x, we need to simplify both sides of the equation and isolate x on one side.
Starting with the left side of the equation:
13x + 26
Next, we combine like terms on the right side of the equation:
3x - 34
So our equation becomes:
13x + 26 = 3x - 34
Next, we want to get rid of the x term on one side of the equation by subtracting 3x from both sides:
13x - 3x + 26 = 3x - 3x - 34
10x + 26 = -34
Next, we want to isolate the x term, so we subtract 26 from both sides:
10x + 26 - 26 = -34 - 26
10x = -60
Finally, we divide both sides by 10 to solve for x:
10x/10 = -60/10
x = -6
So the solution for x is x = -6.
Solve for x: 13x+26=3x−34
