You can't give out straight answers @Brigadier68 :/

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

First we simplify both sides of the equation giving us \[\frac{ -1 }{ 5 } = \frac{ 1 }{10}x \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

when you do answer please expand why that the answer show your work

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

I am doing it for you now :)

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

Then you flip the equation, \[\frac{ 1 }{ 10 }x = \frac{ -1 }{ 5 }\]

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

Next you divide both sides by 1/10, \[\frac{ 1 }{ 10 }x/\frac{ 1 }{ 10 } = \frac{ -1 }{ 5 }/\frac{ 1 }{ 10 }\] which gives you \[x = -2\]

DivineSolar (divinesolar):
