What is the solution of the equation 4/3x = -6/5? (1 point)
The solution of the equation 4/3x = -6/5 is x = -45/20 or x = -9/4.
thats not correct
Apologies for the incorrect response.
To solve the equation 4/3x = -6/5, we can multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 4/3. The reciprocal of 4/3 is 3/4.
So, when we multiply both sides by 3/4, we get:
(3/4) * (4/3x) = (3/4) * (-6/5)
Simplifying this, we get:
1/x = -18/20
We can further simplify this by multiplying both sides by x:
(1/x) * x = (-18/20) * x
1 = (-18/20) * x
Now, we divide both sides by (-18/20):
(1 / (-18/20)) = (-18/20) * x / (-18/20)
Simplifying this we get:
-20/18 = x
The resulting solution is x = -10/9.
