x-12 = -18?

4) -40

Sagot :

Answer: B) -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Skandarid

3/4 x -12 = -18

We add 12 both sides

3/4 x = -18 + 12

Add −18 and 12 to get −6.

3/4 x = -6

Multiply both sides by 3/4 by the reciprocal of 3/4.

x = -6 × (3/4)

Express a -6 x (3/4) as a single fraction.

x = -6 × 4 / 3

Multiply −6 and 4 to get −24.

x = -24 / 3

Divide −24 by 3 to get −8.

x = -8
