(15)/(x)=-5
x=(15)/(-5)
x=-3

In this case the equation has one solution.

A value of x that makes the equation true is -3, which when substituted into the equation and simplified makes the equation turns into -5=-5.

A value of x that makes the equation false is 1, which when substituted into the equation and simplified makes the equation turns into 15=-5.
