does -3.2x=0.64 have the same answer as x/4= -0.05?

1 answer

To determine if \(-3.2x = 0.64\) has the same solution as \(\frac{x}{4} = -0.05\), we need to solve both equations for \(x\).

  1. For the first equation, \(-3.2x = 0.64\):

\[ x = \frac{0.64}{-3.2} \]

Calculating that gives:

\[ x = \frac{0.64}{-3.2} = -0.2 \]

  1. For the second equation, \(\frac{x}{4} = -0.05\):

\[ x = -0.05 \times 4 = -0.2 \]

Both equations yield the same solution, which is \(x = -0.2\).

So yes, \(-3.2x = 0.64\) and \(\frac{x}{4} = -0.05\) have the same answer.
