Answer 1

Answer:

-5/7=x/28

=> -5=x/4

=> x=4* -5= -20

=> x= -20

Answer 2

$\Large{\underbrace{\sf{\orange{Required\:Solution:}}}}$

$\displaystyle{\sf{ \dfrac{-5}{7} = \dfrac{x}{28}}}$

• Do cross multiplicαtion.

$\longrightarrow{\sf{ -5 \times 28 = x \times 7}}$

$\longrightarrow{\sf{ -140 = 7x}}$

• Trαnspose -140 to L.H.S.

$\longrightarrow{\sf{ x= \dfrac{-140}{7}}}$

$\longrightarrow{\sf{ x= \cancel{\dfrac{140}{7}}}}$

$\large{:}\implies{\boxed{\sf{\orange{ x = -20}}}}$

Therefore, the vαlue of x is -20.
