What is the solution to this equation? x/-5=15

x = -75

Step-by-step explanation:

x/-5=15

x = 15 x -5

x = -75

-75

Step-by-step explanation:

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

            x

Simplify   ——

           -5

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  x    

 —— -  15  = 0

 -5    

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

2.1   Subtracting a whole from a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  -5  as the denominator :

         15     15 • -5

   15 =  ——  =  ———————

         1        -5  

Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

2.2       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

x • -1 - (15 • 5)     -x - 75

—————————————————  =  ———————

        5                5  

Step  3  :

Pulling out like terms :

3.1     Pull out like factors :

  -x - 75  =   -1 • (x + 75)

Equation at the end of step  3  :

 -x - 75

 ———————  = 0

    5  

Step  4  :

When a fraction equals zero :

4.1    When a fraction equals zero ...

Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.

Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.

Here's how:

 -x-75

 ————— • 5 = 0 • 5

   5  

Now, on the left hand side, the  5  cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.

The equation now takes the shape :

  -x-75  = 0

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

4.2      Solve  :    -x-75 = 0

Add  75  to both sides of the equation :

                     -x = 75

Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) :  x = -75

One solution was found :

                  x = -75

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
