Question
82x-2=824x
Solve the equation
x=-\frac{1}{371}
Alternative Form
x\approx -0.002695
Evaluate
82x-2=824x
Move the variable to the left side
82x-2-824x=0
Subtract the terms
More Steps
Evaluate
82x-824x
Collect like terms by calculating the sum or difference of their coefficients
\left(82-824\right)x
Subtract the numbers
-742x
-742x-2=0
Move the constant to the right side
-742x=0+2
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
-742x=2
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
742x=-2
Divide both sides
\frac{742x}{742}=\frac{-2}{742}
Divide the numbers
x=\frac{-2}{742}
Solution
More Steps
Evaluate
\frac{-2}{742}
\text{Cancel out the common factor }2
\frac{-1}{371}
\text{Use }\frac{-a}{b}=\frac{a}{-b}=-\frac{a}{b}\text{ to rewrite the fraction}
-\frac{1}{371}
x=-\frac{1}{371}
