Multiple both sides by 5/1 and get

-1/1 • (x-4) = -10/1

divide the numbers and get

-1 • (x-4) = -10

remove the parentheses

- x-4 = 10

move the constant to the right

-x = -10-4

calculate

-x = -14

change the signs

x= 14

Find the quotient please
LenKa [72]

Answer:

-7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fractions are division! If you don't know what a quotient is, It is basically a more complicated way of saying "find the answer by dividing." So we always divide the numerator (top number) by the denominator (bottom number). So we get 14÷-2 and we can see that -2 is a negative number, so remember that a positive times or divided by a negative is always a negative number. So therefore we get -7 as our quotient.

36.091 = X

Therefore, the individual has 36.09 pounds of body fat.
