Question

-6/5x=-36 solve for x

Answer 1

This is a problem of one unknown variable

The equation given is:

$-\frac{6}{5}x=-36$

First, we should notice that both sides of the equation are negative, so we can multiply by -1 on each side in order to have positive terms

$\frac{6}{5}x=36$

then we need to isolate the x

$\begin{gathered} 6x=5\cdot36 \\ 6x=180 \\ x=\frac{180}{6} \\ x=30 \end{gathered}$

x=30
