1/(4x)=-4

\frac{1}{4 x} = - 4

x = - \frac{1}{16}

Decimal

x = - 0.0625

Solution steps

\frac{1}{4 x} = - 4

Multiply both sides by

x

\frac{1}{4} = - 4 x

Switch sides

- 4 x = \frac{1}{4}

Divide both sides by

- 4

x = - \frac{1}{16}

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 0

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = - \frac{1}{16}

y, x = \frac{y - 1}{y - 3}

5 + \frac{x + 5}{x - 7} = x

\frac{2 π}{x} = \frac{2 π}{3.14}

1 - \frac{2}{x - 1} = \frac{x + 7}{x ^{2} - 1}

\frac{4}{a - 7} = \frac{- 2 a}{a + 3}
