Answer:

The number is -3 2/5 or -17/5 or -3.4 ( all are correct but in different forms )

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 1 2/5 = -2

So to find x you need to subtract 1 2/5 form -2

So , -2 - 1 2/5

= -2 - 7/5

= -2 + -7/5

= -2/1 + -7/5

= -17/5 = -3 2/5

Hope this helps and pls mark as brainliest :)

1) (1 Point) : If-18 - x=9, then -5 +6x = ?
TiliK225 [7]
-167, because if you solve -18-x=9, x will be equal to -27. When you put -27 in place of the x in -5+6x, you get -167. Have a nice day!
