Question

Solve for x.
2x/9=-65

Answer 1

Hey there!☺

`Answer:\boxed{x=(-585)/(2)}`

`Explanation:`

`(2x)/(9)=-65`

In our first step, we will simplify:

`(2)/(9)x=-65`

Now we have to multiply both sides by 9/2:

`((9)/(2))*((2)/(9)x)=((9)/(2))*(65)\\ x=(-585)/(2)`

x=-585/2 is your answer.

Hope this helps!☺
