Question 99864
{{{(8/7)x=-12}}} Start with the given equation



{{{cross((7/8)(8/7))x=-12(7/8)}}} Multiply both sides by {{{(7/8)}}} to eliminate {{{8/7}}} on the left side



{{{x=-84/8)}}} Multiply 



{{{x=-21/2)}}} Reduce



So our answer is {{{x=-21/2)}}} which is {{{x=-10.5}}} in decimal form
