Challenge question: -7=1 x
-
5

Answer 1

is the problem -7 = 1/5x ??

Answer 2

x=-35 if the equation is -7=1 (x/5)

Answer 3

that would be the same answer as if the equation was -7 = 1/5x. Because you would multiply the entire equation by 5, then solve for x

Answer 4

(texaschic) yes :]

Answer 5

-7 = 1/5x (multiply the equation by 5)
-35 = x

Answer 6

or you could divide both sides by 1/5
-7 = 1/5x (divide by 1/5)
-7/(1/5) = x
-7 * 5/1 = x
-35/1 or just -35 = x
