1+x\times 10=-2x
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.
1+x\times 10+2x=0
Add 2x to both sides.
1+12x=0
Combine x\times 10 and 2x to get 12x.
12x=-1
Subtract 1 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-1}{12}
Divide both sides by 12.
x=-\frac{1}{12}
Fraction \frac{-1}{12} can be rewritten as -\frac{1}{12} by extracting the negative sign.
