What is the solution of the equation 4/3 * x = - 6/5 (1 point)
To solve the equation 4/3 * x = -6/5, we need to isolate the variable x.
We can do this by multiplying both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 4/3, which is 3/4.
(3/4)(4/3)x = (3/4)(-6/5)
Simplifying the left side, we get:
(3/4)(4/3) = 1
So, the equation becomes:
x = (3/4)(-6/5)
Multiplying the numerators and denominators, we get:
x = -18/20
Simplifying the fraction, we get:
x = -9/10
Therefore, the solution of the equation 4/3 * x = -6/5 is x = -9/10.
