Solve fx^-1=24+2

$$f x ^ { - 1 } = 24 + 2$$

Solve for f

$$f=26x$$

$$x\neq 0$$

Solution Steps

Add 24 and 2 to get 26.

$$fx^{-1}=26$$

Reorder the terms.

$$\frac{1}{x}f=26$$

Multiply both sides of the equation by x.

$$1f=26x$$

Reorder the terms.

$$f=26x$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{f}{26}$$

$$f\neq 0$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Add 24 and 2 to get 26.

$$fx^{-1}=26$$

Reorder the terms.

$$\frac{1}{x}f=26$$

Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.

$$1f=26x$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$26x=1f$$

Reorder the terms.

$$26x=f$$

Divide both sides by 26.

$$\frac{26x}{26}=\frac{f}{26}$$

Dividing by 26 undoes the multiplication by 26.

$$x=\frac{f}{26}$$

Variable x cannot be equal to 0.

$$x=\frac{f}{26}\text{, }x\neq 0$$
