Solve below question 6x - 1 = -13\nOptions:\n(A) -8\n(B) -2\n(C) -5\n(D) -4\n(E) 1
Let’s work this out in a step by step way to be sure we have the right answer.
(B)
1.

Subtract 1 from both sides: 6x - 1 + 1 = -13 + 1 2.

Simplify both sides: 6x = -12 3.

Divide both sides by 6: 4.

Simplify both sides: x = -2.

Thus, the answer is (B)
