28 = - (7)/(2) x \\ x = 28 / ( - (7)/(2) ) \\ x = 28 * ( - ( 2 )/(7) ) \\ x = - 8

Let's chek


- 8 * ( - (7)/(2) ) = (8 * 7)/(2) \\ = 28

Answer:


x = - 8

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

28 = −7 /2 x

Step 2: Flip the equation.

−7 /2 x = 28

Step 3: Multiply both sides by 2/(-7).

( 2 /−7 )*( −7 /2 x) = ( 2 /−7 )*(28)

x=−8

Answer:

x=−8
