Question

X/5=-2 . And how did you get it?

Answer 1

`\huge \boxed{{x=-10}}`

Explanation:

`\displaystyle (x)/(5) =-2`

We need the x variable to be isolated on one side of the equation, so we can find the value of x.

Multiply both sides of the equation by 5.

`\displaystyle (x)/(5)(5) =-2(5)`

Simplify the equation.

`x=-10`

The value of x that makes the equation true is -10.

Answer 2

`(x)/(5)=-2\\\\x=-10`
