Answer:

x = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

To isolate x, we can multiply it by the reciprocal of the fraction (-3/2). We do the same to the -18.

Through cross-multiplication, -18/1 x -3/2 simplifies into -9/1 x -3/1 (because 2 goes into 2 once and 2 goes into -18 -9 times).

-9 x -3 = 27; therefore, x = 27

Answer:

X= 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Muliply by the reciprocal to get rid of the fraction on the right.

(-3/2)-18=(-2/3)(-3/2)x

Simplify by multiplying the fractions. The left makes 54/2 and the right makes x because the reciprocals cancel each other out.

54/2=x

Simplify your fraction by dividing 54 by 2

27=x
