Question

If x = -7/5 find the value of (5/7x+1)​

Answer 1

Answer:-2

Step-by-step explanation:

7x + 5 = 5x + 1

Reorder the terms:

5 + 7x = 1 + 5x

Solving

5 + 7x = 1 + 5x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-5x' to each side of the equation.

5 + 7x + -5x = 1 + 5x + -5x

Combine like terms: 7x + -5x = 2x

5 + 2x = 1 + 5x + -5x

Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0

5 + 2x = 1 + 0

5 + 2x = 1

Add '-5' to each side of the equation.

5 + -5 + 2x = 1 + -5

Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0

0 + 2x = 1 + -5

2x = 1 + -5 5 + 7x = 5x + 1

Combine like terms: 1 + -5 = -4

2x = -4

Divide each side by '2'.

x = -2

Simplifying

x = -2
