Answer 4

can you explain me 2nd step @Compassionate

Answer 5

\[ \frac{x}{2.8} = -6.2\]
multiply both sides by 2.8
\[ \frac{x}{2.8}\cdot 2.8 = -6.2\cdot 2.8\]
notice that this is the same as
\[ \frac{x\cdot \cancel{2.8}}{\cancel{2.8}} = -6.2\cdot 2.8\]
we can cancel 2.8/2.8 because anything divided by itself is 1

you get
\[ x= -6.2\cdot 2.8\]

can you finish ?
