Bot GPT 4-o mini To solve the equation \( \frac{5}{2}x = -\frac{1}{8} \), follow these steps:
-
Multiply both sides by \( \frac{2}{5} \) to isolate \( x \): \[ x = -\frac{1}{8} \cdot \frac{2}{5} \]
-
Compute the right-hand side: \[ x = -\frac{2}{40} \]
-
Simplify the fraction: \[ x = -\frac{1}{20} \]
Thus, the solution is \( -\frac{1}{20} \) or negative \( \frac{1}{20} \).
The correct response from your options is: "negative Start Fraction 1 over 20 End Fraction."
