Question

Solving Equations by Dividing 2) 9x= -135 Solve for x. 0 -144 O 126 O 15 0 -15
​

Answer 1

X = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
9x = -135
Divide by 9 on both sides
X = -15
It is -15 since 135 is negative

Answer 2

`\huge\text{Hey there!}`

`\huge\boxed{\mathsf{9x = -135}}`

`\huge\boxed{\text{DIVIDE 9 to BOTH SIDES}}`

`\huge\boxed{\mathsf{(9x)/(9)= (-135)/(9)}}`

`\huge\boxed{\mathsf{\bullet \ CANCEL: (9)/(9)\ because\ it \ gives\ you\ 1}}`

`\huge\boxed{\bullet\ \mathsf{KEEP: (-135)/(9)\ because\ it\ helps\ solve \ for}}\\\huge\boxed{\mathsf{the\ x-value}}`

`\huge\boxed{\mathsf{x = (-135)/(9)}}\\\\\huge\boxed{\mathsf{(-135)/(9)= x}}}`

`\huge\boxed{Simplify \ it\uparrow}`

`\huge\boxed{\mathsf{x = \bf -15}}`

`\huge\boxed{\textsf{Therefore, your answer is: Option D. -15 }}\huge\checkmark`
