Answer: x=-25 and -25=x *The answer should be the negative sign.*

Step-by-step explanation:

distributive property: a(b+c)=ab+ac

multiplication property of equality is multiplying both sides of an equation by the same number does not change the equation.

multiply by -5 both sides of an equation.

(-2/5x)(-5)=10(-5)

simplify by equation.

2x=-50

divide by 2 both sides of an equation.

2x/2=-50/2

simplify by equation.

50/2=25

25*2=50

50/25=2

It changes  positive to negative.

x=-25 and -25=x

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a great day!

Answer:

x = -25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

[tex](\frac{-2}{5}) (x) = 10[/tex]

Simplify both sides of the equation:

[tex]\frac{-2}{5}x=10[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 5/(-2):

[tex](\frac{5}{-2})*( \frac{-2}{5}x)=(\frac{5}{-2})*(10)[/tex]

x = -25

So therefore, that is how you found your answer: x = -25
