To solve the equation \( 5x = -9 \), we need to isolate \( x \). We can do this by dividing both sides of the equation by 5:
\[ x = \frac{-9}{5} \]
Calculating this gives:
\[ x = -1.8 \]
Unfortunately, none of the options provided (A. -95, B. -3.8, C. -14, D. -24) matches the solution of \( -1.8 \). Please check whether the equation or options were provided correctly.
