Hi

Calculate the variable x value of the following equation:

Note: to do so, will do allowable steps to isolate x on one side of the equation!

 x = 5*(2-x)+ 1     |Applying the Distributive Principle

 x = 10 - 5x + 1    |combining Like terms (adding 5x to both sides of equation)

 6x = 11            |divide both sides of the equation by 6 to 'finish'

  x = 11/6
