You can put this solution on YOUR website! Yes, it IS a linear equation, in ONE VARIABLE.
You want to isolate all terms of x onto one side and factor x from the combined terms. Start by clearing the fraction, and multiply left and right by (a-1).
Use distributive property if you forgot other binomial multiplication skills;
