Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

The solution of given equation is x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Let x be the variable such that

x \in (-12,12)

Relation:

The quotient of a number and 4 is negative 1

We can write the equation as:

\dfrac{x}{4} = -1

Solution:

\dfrac{x}{4} = -1\\\\\Rightarrow x = 4\times -1\\\Rightarrow x = -4

Thus, the solution of given equation is x = -4

How can you tell from the scale factor whether the original figure was enlarged or reduced?
Stels [109]

If the scale factor is less then 1, it was reduced.

If the scale factor is more than 1, it was enlarged.

If it is equal to 1, it is the same.

Hope this helps!
