x = - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
3 x + 1 = - 14
Subtract 1 from both sides:
3 x + (1 - 1) = - 14 - 1
1 - 1 = 0:
3 x = - 14 - 1
-14 - 1 = - 15:
3 x = - 15
Divide both sides of 3 x = - 15 by 3:
(3 x) / 3 = (-15) / 3
3/3 = 1:
x = (-15) / 3
The gcd of - 15 and 3 is 3, so (-15) / 3 = (3 (-5)) / (3*1) = 3/3*-5 = - 5:
Answer: x = - 5
