What number should both sides of the equation x/−5=−6 be multiplied by to solve for the value of x ?
Both sides of the equation should be multiplied by -5.
If 2x=−4 , then what is the value of 8x ?
First, solve the equation 2x = -4 by dividing each side by 2, to get x = -2.
Then, substitute x = -2 into 8x to get 8(-2) = -16.
What is the solution of the equation −8x = −0.56 ?(1 point)
To solve for x, divide both sides of the equation by -8:
x = -0.56 / -8 = 0.07.
What is the solution of the equation 4/3x=−6/5 ?(1 point)
To solve for x, divide each side of the equation by 4/3 (or multiply by 3/4):
x = (−6/5) / (4/3) = -6/5 * 3/4 = -18/20 = -0.9.
