Hello!
Answer: x=-a/c-b and c≠b
Explanation:
Distributive property: → a(b+c)=ab+ac
Solve for x.
First, you had to used their factor.
[tex]cx-bx=x(c-b)[/tex]
[tex]x(c-b)=-a[/tex]
Then you divide by c-b and c≠b
[tex]\frac{x(c-b)}{c-b}= \frac{-a}{c-b}; c\neq b[/tex]
Simplify.
[tex]x=-\frac{a}{c-b};c \neq b[/tex]
Hope this helps!
