What number should both sides of the equation -7x = 14 be divided by to solve for the value of x?
Both sides of the equation -7x = 14 should be divided by -7 to solve for the value of x.
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 x/-5 = -6 should be multiplied by -5 to solve for the value of x.
If 2x = -4, then what is the value of 8x?
First, solve the equation 2x = -4 to find the value of x. In doing so we find x = -2.
Then, substitute -2 for x in the expression 8x to find its value: 8*(-2) = -16. So, the value of 8x is -16.
What is the solution of the equation -8x = -0.56?
In order to solve for x, first both sides of the equation -8x = -0.56 should be divided by -8.
Doing so give us:
-8x / -8 = -0.56 / -8
x = 0.07
So the solution to the equation -8x = -0.56 is x = 0.07.
What is the solution of the equation 4/3x = -6/5
To solve for x, divide both sides of the equation by 4/3 (which is the same as multiplying by 3/4):
x = (-6/5)*(3/4)
x = -18/20
x = -9/10
