-40
-30
O
-20​

Answer 1

$\frac{12}{18} = \frac{x}{ - 60} \\ \\ \frac{2}{3} = \frac{x}{ - 60} \\ \\ x = - 20 \times 2 = - 40$

Answer 2

Answer:

-40

Step-by-step explanation:

12/18 = x/-60

12/18 = -x/60 ( a/-b = -a/b )

18*(-x) = 12*60 ( cross multiplication)

-18x = 720

x = 720 / -18

x= -720/18

x = -40
