The equation 3/5x + 11/3 = -4/3 is solved as follows. Filling the correct numbers to complete the solution.

Question

5/3x =
x =

Make sure to subtract 11/3 from both sides for 5/3x =

Answer 1

5/3x - 11/3 =

Now, combining the like terms on the left side, we get:

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

To isolate 5/3x, we now need to add 11/3 to both sides. This gives us:

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

Simplifying the left side further:

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

Now, adding -4/3 and 11/3, we have:

5/3x = 7/3

To solve for x, we can multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 5/3, which is 3/5:

(3/5)(5/3)x = (3/5)(7/3)

Simplifying further:

1x = 21/15

Now, simplifying 21/15:

x = 7/5

Answer 2

No no so for

5/3x it says subtract 11/3 from both sides
x it says multiply both sides by 3:5, the reciprocal of 5/3 !

Answer 3

Apologies for the confusion. Let's correct the steps.

We have the equation 5/3x = -4/3 - 11/3.

To solve for x, we can start by subtracting 11/3 from both sides:

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

Simplifying the right side:

5/3x - 11/3 = -15/3.

Now, to isolate x, we can multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 5/3, which is 3/5:

(3/5)(5/3)x = (3/5)(-15/3).

Simplifying:

1x = -9/5.

Therefore, the solution to the equation 3/5x + 11/3 = -4/3 is x = -9/5.
