ok, if the question is 1/5X - 10 = -20
you need to so the -10 and - 20 first, so add 10 to eatch side and now your at
1/5X=10, you you do division (sorry for spelling) switch the 5 and the 1 to make it 5/1= 5 so now its 5/10, its 2. X = 2 =D
now for times, so were doing X/5 + 20= 40
20 - 40 = 20
X/5=20
we times 5 to eatch side
5x20= 100
X = 100
i hope this helps because i had some heat on this 2, hope this ancered your question =D
