The answer is x=-36.

Explanation:

You have to isolate x to find the answer. To do this you take your equation and multiply both sides of your equation by negative four. x/-4=9 then becomes x/-4 times -4=9 times -4. As a final result you obtain x=-36.

x = -36

Explanation:

x/-4 = 9

To solve for the variable x we need to make x alone.

To do so, let's multiply both sides by color(blue)(-4):
x/-4 color(blue)(xx-4) = 9 quadcolor(blue)(xx-4)

x/cancel(-4) cancel(color(blue)(xx-4)) = 9 quadcolor(blue)(xx-4)

So the answer is:
x = -36

Hope this helps!
