Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x. Writing an equation in terms of the number, x, gives

5x=13x-16.

Adding 16 to both sides gives

5x+16=13x.

Then, subtracting 5x from both sides gives

8x=16,

and dividing by 8 on both sides simplifies to

x=2.

Answer:

Option B. -j = -h/-k is not correct

Step-by-step explanation:

As from the given scenario both the negative signs will be cancelled out giving positive j : -h/-k = -j

First option has: -j = -h/k In this case also the negative sign from both sides would be cancelled out.

Second option has: -h/-k = -j In this case negative signs cannot be cancelled out.

Third option has: h/-k = -j , negative sign would be cancelled from both sides.

Fourth option has: h/k = j , no negative sign on either side.

i hope it will help you!
