Question

18 / x equals negative 2​

Answer 1

x = -1/9

Explanation:

`(18)/(x) = -2` multiply by 1/18 to cancel out

`x = -2((1)/(18) )\\x = -(2)/(18) \\x = -(1)/(9)`

Answer 2

Hey there!

18/x = -2

Multiply both sides by x

-2x = 18

Divide both of your sides by -2

-2x/-2 = 18/-2

Cancel out: -2x/-2 because it gives you 1

Keep: 18/-2 because it helps us solve for our answer

x = 18/-2

18/-2 = 18 divided by -2 ➡️ -9

Thus your answer is: x = -9 ✅

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
