a..x = -12
b.x = 12
c.x = -60
d.x = 60

Answer 1

A.
`x=-12`

`16+(2)/(5)x=(-3)/(5)x+4`

Fraction
`(-3)/(5)` can be rewritten as
`-(3)/(5)` by extracting the negative sign.

`16+(2)/(5)x=-(3)/(5)x+4`

Add
`(3)/(5)x` to both sides.

`16+(2)/(5)x=(3)/(5)x+4`

Combine
`(2)/(5)x` and
`(3)/(5)x` to get
`x`

`16+x=4`

Subtract 16 from both sides.

`x=4-16`

Subtract 16 from 4 to get -12

`x=-12`

Hope this helps!
