Solve the following equation
-65(x-79)=x+98
Solve for x
-65(x - 79) = x + 98
Group our variables -65x and x subtract x from both sides
-65x + 5135 - x = x + 98 - x
-66x + 5135 = 98
Group our constants 5135 and 98. subtract 5135 from both sides
-66x + 5135 - 5135 = 98 - 5135
-66x = -5037
x = 76.318181818182
