Solve the following equation. 2x + 1/3 = 1/9 x = □ (Type an integer or a fraction.)

Solve the following equation.
2x + 1/3 = 1/9
x = □ (Type an integer or a fraction.)

Answer

To solve the equation 2x + 1/3 = 1/9, follow these steps:

  1. Subtract 1/3 from both sides to isolate the term with x: 2x = 1/9 - 1/3.
  2. Find a common denominator to subtract the fractions: 1/9 - 3/9 = -2/9.
  3. So, 2x = -2/9.
  4. Divide both sides by 2 to solve for x: x = (-2/9) / 2 = -2/18 = -1/9.

x = -1/9
