Question

Solve for x. 2 11 3 15 Answer: Submit Answer

Answer 1

x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:

`-(2)/(3)=(x)/(15)`

Step 1:

Cross multiply

`\begin{gathered} 3\text{ }* x\text{ = -2 }*15 \\ 3x\text{ = -30} \end{gathered}`

Step 2:

Divide both sides by 3

`\begin{gathered} (3x)/(3)=(-30)/(3) \\ x\text{ = -10} \end{gathered}`

Hence the value of x is -10
