Question

What is the solution of -4x = 100? O x=-2500 Ox=-50 Ox=-2.5 O no solution

Answer 1

Answer:

$x=-25$

(None of the answer choices you've provided match the correct answer.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$-4x=100$

To find the solution (what $x$ equals), we must divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of

$x=25$

Therefore, the solution of $-4x=100$ is $x=-25$.

We can check our work by substituting the solved value of $x$ into the given equation:

$-4x=100$

$-4(-25)=100$

$100=100$

Since both sides of the equation are equal to each other, our solution is correct!
