x/4 − 5 = −2 (1 point)

1 answer

To solve the equation, we can follow these steps:

1. Add 5 to both sides of the equation:
x/4 - 5 + 5 = -2 + 5
x/4 = 3

2. Multiply both sides of the equation by 4 to isolate x:
4 * (x/4) = 3 * 4
x = 12

Therefore, the solution to the equation x/4 − 5 = −2 is x = 12.
