(9x)/(4)=-9\ \ \ |\text{Multiplication Property of Equality}\\\\4\cdot(9x)/(4)=4\cdot(-9)\\\\9x=-36\ \ \ \ |\text{Division Property of Equality}\\\\(9x)/(9)=(-36)/(9)\\\\x=-4

Answer:

The justification is mentioned below.

Explanation:

Given equation,


(9x)/(4)=-9

Multiply both sides by 4 ( multiplicative property of equality ),


(9x)/(4)* 4 = -9* 4


9x=-36

Divide both sides by 9 ( division property of equality )


(9x)/(9)=(-36)/(9)


x=-4
