8x-1=18x+60
Multiply both sides of the equation by 6.
8x-1-18x=60
Subtract 18x from both sides.
-10x-1=60
Combine 8x and -18x to get -10x.
-10x=60+1
Add 1 to both sides.
-10x=61
Add 60 and 1 to get 61.
x=\frac{61}{-10}
Divide both sides by -10.
x=-\frac{61}{10}
Fraction \frac{61}{-10} can be rewritten as -\frac{61}{10} by extracting the negative sign.
