multiplie both sides by 2 so what will get ?
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
x
-- = - 64 multiply both sides by 2
2
x
2* ( --- ) = 2*(-64)
2
OpenStudy (lex203):
so would we get -2=-128
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
-128 on the right side is correct
but on the left side will get what ?
2 from numerator with 2 from denominator what will make ?
OpenStudy (lex203):
4x ?

2x
---- = ?
2
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
so simplify 2 by 2 and will remain there just an x
ok. ?
OpenStudy (lex203):
ok
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
and what value will get for x = ?
OpenStudy (lex203):

what you wrote above like result for the right side ?
OpenStudy (lex203):
for the right side i got -128

exactly so this will be the correct value for x
x = - 128
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
do you understand it now ?
OpenStudy (lex203):

or you can solve it in this way too
x - 64
--- = ----- cross multiply and will get
2 1
1*x = 2*(-64)
x = -128
what you like it so much
every to ways are correct
OpenStudy (lex203):
thank u so much
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
np
was my pleasure
but do you understand it now sure ?
