Question

Solve the equation, -(X/ d )=5 , for x . Which of the following properties of equality did you apply

Answer 1

Answer:

Multiplication

The solution of given equation x = -20

Step-by-step explanation:

step (i) :-

given equation = -(x/4) = 5

multiply '1' on both sides we get

$= - (( - \frac{x}{4} )) = - 5$

$= \frac{x}{4} = - 5$

step (ii) :-

multiply '4' on both sides we get

$= \: \: \: \: \: \frac{x}{4} \: \: \times \: 4 \: \: = - 5 \times 4$

Cancellation '4' on left side we get

x = -20

conclusion:-

The solution of given equation x = -20
