negative two is Equivalent to the quotient of a number and four added to one

Answer 1

-2 = ^x/₄ + 1

Subtract 1 from both sides:

-2 - 1 = ^x/₄ + 1 - 1

-3 = ^x/₄

Multiply both sides by 4:

-3 * 4 = ^x/₄ * 4

-12 = x

Answer 2

Hello. -2=X/(4+1)

-2=X/5

-2=-10/5

So X=-10

So X equals minus 10.
