Question

Solve the equation –23x = –12.
A. –18
B. –8
C. 8
D. 18

Answer 1

x=12/23

Explanation:

To solve, we must isolate the variable, x

-23x= -12

Divide both sides by -23

x=-12/-23

x=12/23

Answer 2

X=12/23 because you divide both sides by -23. -23x divided by (-23) = -12 divided by (-23).
