You can put this solution on YOUR website!
$\"-%281%2F6%29x=24\"$ Start with the given equation.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"-6%28-%281%2Fcross%286%29%29x%29=-6%2824%29\"$ Multiply both sides by -6.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=-144\"$ Multiply.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
