Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
7 plus the product of 6 and a number, all divided by -5, = 9
the product is the result of multiplication
let the number be n
((7 + (6 * n)) / -5) = 9....multiply both sides by -5 to get rid of the fraction, cancelling out the -5 on the left side
(7 + 6n) = 9 * -5
7 + 6n = -45
6n = -45 - 7
6n = -52
n = -52/6 which reduces to - 26/3
