-fx=2x+2-1
Subtract 1 from both sides.
-fx=2x+1
Subtract 1 from 2 to get 1.
\left(-x\right)f=2x+1
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-x\right)f}{-x}=\frac{2x+1}{-x}
Divide both sides by -x.
f=\frac{2x+1}{-x}
Dividing by -x undoes the multiplication by -x.
f=-2-\frac{1}{x}
Divide 2x+1 by -x.
1-fx-2x=2
Subtract 2x from both sides.
-fx-2x=2-1
Subtract 1 from both sides.
-fx-2x=1
Subtract 1 from 2 to get 1.
\left(-f-2\right)x=1
Combine all terms containing x.
\frac{\left(-f-2\right)x}{-f-2}=\frac{1}{-f-2}
Divide both sides by -f-2.
x=\frac{1}{-f-2}
Dividing by -f-2 undoes the multiplication by -f-2.
