Answer 1

What they said ☝️ x = -12

Answer 2

x = -12

Explanations:

Given the following equation

`-(1)/(2)x=6`

We are to find the variable x. To do that, we will multiply both sides by -2 as shown:

`\begin{gathered} -(1)/(2)x*-2=6*-2 \\ x=6*-2 \\ x=-12 \end{gathered}`

This shows that the value of x for the equation to be true is -12

Check

If x = -12, on substiituting;

`\begin{gathered} =-(1)/(2)(-12) \\ =(-12)/(-2) \\ =\text{ 6} \end{gathered}`

Since the result is equivalent to 6, this shows that the solution x = -12 is correct.
