-3 +x/5 = -8

need help to solve

1 answer

To solve for x, we need to isolate the variable on one side of the equation.

We can start by adding 3 to both sides of the equation:

-3 + x/5 + 3 = -8 + 3

Simplifying:

x/5 = -5

Multiplying both sides by 5:

x = -25

Therefore, x = -25 is the solution to the equation.
