Answer:

0

Explanation:

Continuing from where Karissa stopped, solving for the value of x in the equation can be done as follows:


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


(x)/(2) = (-x)/(2)

Cross multiply

2x = -2x

2x + 2x = 0

4x = 0

Divide both sides by 4


(4x)/(4) = (0)/(4)

x = 0

The value of x in the equation Karissa was solving is 0
