Answer:
x= -4
Step-by-step explanation:
9+ 1/4x -10= -2
You can either add the +9 and -10 or take each of them to the right hand side individually. I will add them and simplify first.
+9 -10= -1
We are left with,
1/4x -1= -2
Now take the -1 to the right hand side. Then,
-2 +1= -1
We are left with,
1/4x= -1
To find 'x' finally, you need to remove the fraction 1/4. In order to do that, you can multiply 1/4 by which will remove the 4 at the bottom. REMEMBER TO MULTIPLY THE RIGHT HAND SIDE ALSO BY 4.
1/4x ×4 = -1 ×4
-1×4=-4
Therefore,
x=-4
