[tex] \frac{ - 25}{3} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1: cross multiply
[tex] \frac{10}{3} = \frac{x}{ - \frac{5}{2} } [/tex]
[tex]10 \times (- \frac{5}{2} ) = x \times (3)[/tex]
[tex] - 25 = 3x[/tex]
step 2: flip the equation
[tex]3x = - 25[/tex]
step 3: divide both sides by 3
[tex] \frac{3x}{3} = \frac{ - 25}{3} [/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{ - 25}{3} [/tex]
