Question

When solving negative one over three.(x − 15) = −4, what is the correct sequence of operations?

Multiply each side by negative one over three , subtract 15 from each side
Multiply each side by −3, add 15 to each side
Multiply each side by negative one over three , add 15 to each side
Multiply each side by 3, subtract 15 from each side

Answer 1

-1/3(x - 15) = -4--- multiply each side by -3
(-3/1)(-1/3) (x - 15) = (-3)(-4)
(x - 15) = 12 --- add 15 to both sides
x = 12 + 15
x = 27

Answer 2

so b
