Question
What number should both sides of the equation x/−5=−6 be multiplied by to solve for the value of x ?
To solve for the value of x in the equation x/−5=−6, both sides of the equation should be multiplied by -5.
If 2x=−4 , then what is the value of 8x ?(1
If 2x = -4, the value of x is -2. To find the value of 8x, we substitute x = -2 into the expression:
8x = 8(-2) = -16.

Therefore, the value of 8x is -16.
What is the solution of the equation −8x = −0.56 ?(
To find the solution of the equation −8x = −0.56, we divide both sides of the equation by -8:

−8x / -8 = −0.56 / -8

Simplifying, we have:

x = 0.07

Therefore, the solution of the equation −8x = −0.56 is x = 0.07.
What is the solution of the equation 4/3x=−6/5 ?(1
To solve the equation 4/3x = -6/5, we need to isolate x.

First, multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 4/3, which is 3/4:

(4/3x) * (3/4) = (-6/5) * (3/4)

Simplifying, we have:

x = (-18/20)

Now, we can simplify the fraction:

x = (-9/10)

Therefore, the solution to the equation 4/3x = -6/5 is x = -9/10.
