What is the value of x in the equation x/-4=7?

-28

Step-by-step explanation: Since x is being divided by -4, to solve for x, multiply both sides of the equation by -4.

On the left side, the -4's will cancel

and on the right side, 7(-4) is -28.

So x = -28.

answer: the answer is 23

step-by-step explanation:

x =±sqrt(1/3)

step-by-step explanation:

x+4/6x=1/x

multiply each side by 6x to get rid of the fractions

6x*(x+4/6x)=1/x*6x

distribute

6x^2 +4 = 6

subtract 4 from each side

6x^2 +4-4 = 6-4

6x^2 =2

divide by 6

6x^2/6 = 2/6

x^2 = 1/3

take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = ±sqrt(1/3)

x =±sqrt(1/3)
