Solve the equation. http://i1255.photobucket.com/albums/hh639/zigzagoon20001/Question2Equation_zps188ea74e.png A. -7/5 B. 35 C. 12 D. –35

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what happens when you multiply 5 to both sides?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you get -35 on the left side and 25 on the right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{1}{5}*{5}=\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i'm not sure how to solve that.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{1}{5}*5=\frac{5*1}{5}=\frac{5}{5}=?\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{h}{5}=h*\frac{1}{5}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i'm not sure what i'm looking at here..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{1}{5} = 1 \div 5\] \[\frac{5}{5}=5 \div 5\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so.. 0.2 & 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[-7=\frac{h}{5}\] \[-7=h*\frac{1}{5}\] multiply 5 to both sides to get rid of the 1/5 because 5*1/5 =1 \[-7*5=h*\frac{1}{5}*5\] \[-7*5=h*1\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

h = -35 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes...
