Hint: Cross multiply

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Cross Multiply here having the meaning of: Take away the denominator of the right side, multiply it to the numerator on the left; Take away the denominator of the left side, multiply it to the numerator on the right; NOTE You must note the the negative sign on the right side of the equation. If you take the denominator on the right to be -10, the numerator must be without the negative sign.
