A. To solve the equation −6x = 48 and find the value of x, you should divide both sides by -6. This is because dividing both sides of an equation by the same non-zero number does not change the equality of the equation. It allows you to isolate the variable (x) on one side of the equation.

B. To solve the equation x/12 = 6 and find the value of x, you should multiply both sides of the equation by 12. This is because multiplying both sides of an equation by the same non-zero number does not change the equality of the equation. It allows you to eliminate the fraction and isolate the variable (x) on one side of the equation.
