Respuesta :

Answer:

Option Negative 1 and four-fifths is correct

That is [tex]x=-1\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given problem is Negative start fraction 2 over 9 end fraction x=two-fifths

Given equation  can be written as [tex]-\frac{2}{9}x=\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

To find the value of x in the given equation :

[tex]-\frac{2}{9}x=\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Mutliply by [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex] on both sides we have

[tex]\frac{2x}{9}\times(\frac{9}{2})=\frac{2}{5}\times(\frac{9}{2})[/tex]

[tex]-x=\frac{9}{5}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{-9}{5}[/tex]

[tex]x=-1\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

therefore the value of x is [tex]-1\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Option Negative 1 and four-fifths is correct

That is [tex]x=-1\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
