Question

What is -2 = 5 / (2x+3)

Answer 1

x = -11/4

Explanation:

Given that:

-2 = 5 / (2x+3)

Multiplying both sides by (2x + 3)

-2(2x + 3) = 5

"-" sign will alter the inner signs

-4x -6 = 5

Adding 6 on both sides:

-4x -6 +6 = 5 + 6

-4x = 11

Dividing both sides by -4

-4x/-4 = 11/-4

x = -11/4
