To determine which pairs of equations have exactly the same solution, we'll solve each pair of equations.

  1. Pair 1:

    • Equation 1: \( -3.2x = 0.64 \)
      \( x = \frac{0.64}{-3.2} = -0.2 \)

    • Equation 2: \( \frac{x}{4} = -0.05 \)
      \( x = -0.05 \times 4 = -0.2 \)

    Both equations have the same solution: \( x = -0.2 \).

  2. Pair 2:

    • Equation 1: \( x \cdot 3.2 = 1.8 \)
      \( x = \frac{1.8}{3.2} = 0.5625 \)

    • Equation 2: \( 1.8x = 3.2 \)
      \( x = \frac{3.2}{1.8} = 1.7777... \)

    The solutions are different.

  3. Pair 3:

    • Equation 1: \( \frac{3}{8}x = 1 \)
      \( x = \frac{1}{(3/8)} = \frac{8}{3} \approx 2.6667\)

    • Equation 2: \( \frac{1}{3}x = \frac{1}{8} \)
      \( x = \frac{1/8}{1/3} = \frac{3}{8} \)

    The solutions are different.

  4. Pair 4:

    • Equation 1: \( -\frac{3}{4}x = 52 \)
      \( x = \frac{52}{-3/4} = -\frac{52 \cdot 4}{3} = -\frac{208}{3} \approx -69.3333\)

    • Equation 2: \( 52x = -34 \)
      \( x = -\frac{34}{52} = -\frac{17}{26} \approx -0.6538\)

    The solutions are different.

Based on the analysis, the pair of equations that has exactly the same solution is Pair 1:

−3.2x = 0.64 and \(\frac{x}{4} = -0.05\).
