Answer 1

Hi there! :) :D

Answer:

B. x=-4

x=-4

*The answer must have a negative sign.*

Explanation:

First, you divide by -13 from both sides of an equation.

`(-13x)/(-13)=(52)/(-13)`

And, then you divide by the numbers and simplify or solve.

`52/13=4`

Final answer: →
`x=-4`

Hope this helps!

Thanks!
