Can anyone tell me what "x" equals. Thx.

-6x-1=23
=> -6x=1+23
=> -6x=24
=> x= 24/-6
=> x= -4
Hope it helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
Given;
[tex] - 6x - 1 = 23[/tex]
~ Shift "-1" on right side.
[tex] - 6x = 23 + 1[/tex]
[tex] - 6x = 24[/tex]
~Divide 24 by -6.
[tex]x = \frac{24}{ - 6} [/tex]
Therefore, x= -4.
Hope it helps...
