Answer:

x = - 6

Explanation:

Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the variable (x). Divide -15 from both sides

(-15x)/-15 = (90)/-15

x = 90/(-15)

Divide.

x = 90/-15

x = -6

*Remember that when you divide a negative number and a positive number, the result will be a negative answer.

-6 is your answer
