Question 63644
If this is what you meant:
{{{(2/5)x=-10}}}
{{{(5/2)(2/5)x=-10(5/2)}}}
{{{(10/10)x=-50/2}}}
{{{1x=-25}}}
{{{highlight(x=-25)}}}
Check, if x=-25 does the equation equal?
{{{(2/5)(-25)=-10}}}
{{{-50/5=-10}}}
{{{-10=-10}}} We're right!!!
:
If this is what you meant:
{{{2/5x=-10}}}
{{{5x(2/5x)=5x(-10)}}}
{{{2=-50x}}}
{{{2/-50=-50x/-50}}}
{{{-1/25=x}}}
{{{highlight(x=-1/25)}}}
You can check this the way I checked the first one if you want.
Happy Calculating!!!
