To solve the equation 5/3x + 11/3 = -4/3, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation.
First, we subtract 11/3 from both sides:
5/3x + 11/3 - 11/3 = -4/3 - 11/3
5/3x = -15/3
Next, we simplify the right side:
5/3x = -5
To isolate x, we multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 5/3 (which is 3/5):
(5/3x)(3/5) = -5(3/5)
15/15x = -15/5
Simplifying further:
x = -3
So the solution to the equation is x = -3.
The equation 5/3x+11/3=−4/3 is solved as follows. Fill in the correct numbers to complete the solution.(1 point) 5/3x+11/3=−4/3 5/3x= Subtract 11/3 from both sides. x= Multiply both sides by 3/5, the reciprocal of 5/3.
