To solve the equation, we want to isolate the variable x.

First, let's simplify the equation by multiplying both sides by 3 to eliminate the denominators:
(3)(5/3 x + 11/3) = (3)(-4/3)

This simplifies to:
5x + 11 = -4

Next, subtract 11 from both sides of the equation:
5x + 11 - 11 = -4 - 11

Which simplifies to:
5x = -15

Finally, divide both sides of the equation by 5 to solve for x:
(1/5)(5x) = (1/5)(-15)

This yields:
x = -3

Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = -3.

To isolate 5/3x, we can subtract 11/3 from both sides of the equation:

5/3x + 11/3 - 11/3 = -4/3 - 11/3

This simplifies to:

5/3x = -15/3

Now, let's simplify -15/3:

5/3x = -5

Therefore, the equation 5/3x - 11/3 = -4/3 is equivalent to 5/3x = -5.
