    Step-by-step explanation:

    Multiply equation by 5x to remove fraction.

    -2 - 10x = - 90x

    -10x + 90x = 2

    80x = 2

    x = 2 : 80

    x = 1/40 or 0.025

    x=-1/50

    =-0.02

    Step-by-step explanation:

    -2/5x-2=18

    -2/5x=18+2

    -2/5x=20

    -2/5x*5x=20*5x

    -2=100x

    -2/100=100x/100

    -1/50=x

    -0.02=x

    x=-0.02
