Question

-7-9=-10s solve for s

Answer 1

s = 8/5

Explanation:

Solve for s:

-16 = -10 s

-16 = -10 s is equivalent to -10 s = -16:

-10 s = -16

Divide both sides of -10 s = -16 by -10:

(-10 s)/(-10) = (-16)/(-10)

(-10)/(-10) = 1:

s = (-16)/(-10)

The gcd of -16 and -10 is -2, so (-16)/(-10) = (-2×8)/(-2×5) = (-2)/(-2)×8/5 = 8/5:

Answer: s = 8/5
