Answer:
x=-6
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]-6+5(1-x)=-13-7x[/tex]
1) Using the distributive property distribute the 5 to the equation in the parenthesis
[tex]-6+5-5x=-13-7x[/tex]
2) Combine the -6 and 5
[tex]-1-5x=-13-7x[/tex]
3) Add 1 to both sides.
[tex]-1(+1)-5x=-13(+1)-7x[/tex]
[tex]-5x=-12-7x[/tex]
4) Add 7x to both sides
[tex]-5x(+7x)=-12-7x(+7x)\\ 2x=-12[/tex]
5) Divide both sides by 2 to isolate the x.
[tex]\frac{2x}{2} =\frac{-12}{2}\\ x=-6[/tex]
