To solve the equation 8/5x = -10, you need to isolate x.
First, you can multiply both sides of the equation by 5 to get rid of the fraction:
(8/5)x * 5 = -10 * 5
8x = -50
Next, you can divide both sides of the equation by 8 to solve for x:
(8x)/8 = -50/8
x = -25/4
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = -25/4.
The correct answer is C. -25/4.
