Solution 1

Sure, let's solve the equation step by step:

  1. The given equation is -2x + 1 = -x + 7.

  2. First, let's get rid of the negative signs by multiplying the entire equation by -1. This gives us 2x - 1 = x - 7.

  3. Next, let's move the x term from the right side of the equation to the left side by subtracting x from both sides. This gives us 2x - x = -7 + 1.

  4. Simplifying the left side gives us x = -7 + 1.

  5. Finally, simplifying the right side gives us x = -6.

So, the solution to the equation -2x + 1 = -x + 7 is x = -6.

Solution 2

Claro, aquí tienes la solución paso a paso:

  1. Empezamos con la ecuación original: 2x+1=x+7-2x + 1 = -x + 7

  2. Sumamos xx a ambos lados de la ecuación para eliminar xx del lado derecho: 2x+x+1=x+x+7-2x + x + 1 = -x + x + 7 x+1=7-x + 1 = 7

  3. Restamos 1 de ambos lados de la ecuación para aislar el término con xx: x+11=71-x + 1 - 1 = 7 - 1 x=6-x = 6

  4. Multiplicamos ambos lados de la ecuación por 1-1 para resolver para xx: 1(x)=6(1)-1 \cdot (-x) = 6 \cdot (-1) x=6x = -6

Por lo tanto, la solución de la ecuación es x=6x = -6.
