Answer 1

$\boxed{ \sf \bold{x = -12}}$

Explanation:

$\dashrightarrow \ \ \sf -5x = 60$

divide both sides by -5

$\dashrightarrow \ \ \sf \dfrac{-5x}{-5} = \dfrac{60}{-5}$

simplify

$\dashrightarrow \ \ \sf x = -12$

Answer 2

Answer:

x = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

⇒ -5x = 60

Isolate the variable "x" by dividing by -5 on each side.

⇒ -5x/-5 = 60/-5

⇒ x = -12

The solution is x = -12
