Answer:
x = -20
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation:
-8.2x = 164
Divide both sides by -8.2:
⇒ -8.2x ÷ -8.2 = 164 ÷ -8.2
⇒ x = -20
[tex]\\ \rm\rightarrowtail -8.2x=164[/tex]
[tex]\\ \rm\rightarrowtail 8.2x=-164[/tex]
[tex]\\ \rm\rightarrowtail x=-164/8.2[/tex]
[tex]\\ \rm\rightarrowtail x=-20[/tex]
