    Answer:

    25

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If it gives a result of -4 then our equation will have …. = -4

     

    If we subtract 9 from the quotient of a number and 5 we have  x/5 – 9

     

    Our equation is:

     

    x/5 – 9 = -4     add 9 to both sides

    x/5 = -4 + 9

    x/5 = 5           multiply both sides by 5

    x = 5(5)

    x = 25

    Check:  25/5 – 9 = 5-9 = -4

               Answer checks as correct from information given
