Solve the equation.

–9x + 1 = –x + 17

x = –8
x = –2
x = 2
x = 8

-9x + 1= -x + 17

- 9x + x= 17 - 1

-8x = 16

- x = 16÷8

x = -2

-9x + 1= -x + 17

- 9x + x= 17 - 1

-8x = 16

- x = 16÷8

x = -2

5x+40

5(x + 8)

7x - 49

7(x - 7)

18x + 9

9(2x + 1)

15x - 10

5(3x - 2)

step-by-step explanation:

for number one all you have to do is factor 5 out of 5x + 40

for number 2 factor 7 out of 7x - 49

for number three factor 9 out of 18x + 9

for number four factor 5 out of 15x - 10
