x = -1

- 100x = 100

Explanation:


- 100x - 100 = 0

Move the constant to the right side and change the sign


- 100x = 100

Change the sign of both side of the equation


100x = - 100

Divide both side by the same number


x = - 1


- 100x


- 100 * - 1

Remove the ( - ) sign since negative number are multiplied by even number...


100 * 1 \\ 100
