Explain the process to solve the equation. Use proper vocabulary in your explanation. One-fourth x = negative five-eighths

-2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Your want to isolate the x. This is a multiplication problem, so use the inverse operation, which is division. Divide both sides of the equation by

1/4 by multiplying by the reciprocal, 4. (− 5

8)(4) is − 5/2. Use substitution to check the answer. x = − 5/2 :)

step-by-step explanation:

the true statements are:

r = set of real numbers

n = set of natural numbers, 1,2,

w = n u{0} = {0,1,}
