Question

Solve for x.

-3x = 15

Answer 1

X= -5, ( you’re supposed to divide both sides by -3 which would give you -5 ( the -3 cancels itself out so you’re just left with -3 divided by 15)

Answer 2

x = -5

Explanation:

1. Divide both sides by -3

2. Simplify 15/-3 to 5

( 15 divided by -3 is -5)
