What is the solution of -6x = 48?

-2
-8
8
2

The correct answer is: 2

The solution to -6x = 48 is 2. This can be found by dividing 48 by the coefficient of x, which is -6. In this problem, -2, -8, and 8 are incorrect choices because they do not solve the original equation. -2 equals -12 when multiplied by -6, -8 equals 48 when divided by -6, and 8 equals -48 when multiplied by -6. Therefore, the only option that satisfies the equation is 2.
