Pulling out like terms

5.1 Pull out like factors :

-29x - 34 = -1 • (29x + 34)

Equation at the end of step

:

-29x - 34 = 0

STEP

6

:

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

6.1 Solve : -29x-34 = 0

Add 34 to both sides of the equation :

-29x = 34

Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) : 29x = -34

Divide both sides of the equation by 29:

x = -34/29 = -1.172
