9th grade algebra help? 1/4x-x=-15

1/4x-x=-15

Could you clarify what you have to do? Do you have to solve for x?

If so, is this the actual equation?

$\frac{1}{4x} - x = -15$

This is a disguised quadratic equation. Multiply throughout by 4x and bring everything on one side.

Then use the quadratic formula to find the roots of the equation.
