Ok. To solve the equation 4/3x = -6/5, follow these steps:
Step 1: Rewrite the equation.
First, let's rewrite the equation as (4/3)x = -6/5. We usually ditch the infix multiplication operator.
Step 2: Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of the coefficient of x
The coefficient of x is the fraction to the left of x, which is 4/3. The reciprocal of 4/3 is 3/4. So, we multiply each side of the equation by 3/4. This essentially cancels out the 4/3 on the left side of the equation to isolate x.
Step 3: Solve the equation.
The left side becomes x, because (4/3)x * (3/4) equals to x. And the right side becomes (-6/5) * (3/4). When you multiply these fractions, you get -18/20.
Step 4: Simplify the fraction.
Simplify -18/20 to -9/10 using the greatest common divisor method.
Therefore, x = -9/10. This is the final answer.
