Answer:

x = -1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x in the equation given:

1/x = 6/5x +1

Lowest Common Denominator = 5x

5 = 6 + 5x

5 - 6 = 5x

-1 = 5x

x = -1/5

Let's prove x = -1/5 is correct

1/ -1/5 = 6/5 * -1/5 + 1

1/1 * -5/1 = 6/-1 + 1

-5 = - 6 + 1

- 5 = - 5

We proved that x = -1/5 is correct
