-12x=-48
A. 576
B.4
C.-4
D. 1/4
I am not sure how to answer, any help, por favor?
Divide both sides by -12
You divide it, then you'll get the answer: 1/4. Am i correct?
1/4 is wrong
In order to solve the equation -12x = -48, we need to isolate the variable x.
To do this, we can start by dividing both sides of the equation by -12. This gives us:
x = -48 / -12
Simplifying the right side of the equation, we have:
x = 4
So the value of x that satisfies the equation -12x = -48 is x = 4.
Now, let's match this result with the given answer choices:
A. 576 - This does not match the value we found.
B. 4 - This is the value we found, so it is a possible answer.
C. -4 - This does not match the value we found.
D. 1/4 - This does not match the value we found.
Therefore, the correct answer is B. 4.
