Answer:7.3 repeating

Explanation:

First, since these are right across from each other, they are equal. So (x+16)=(4x-5)

Then you would subtract the 4x from both sides. Making the equation (-3x+16) = (-5)

Subtract the 16 from both sides making it a -3x=-22

To turn it positive, divide everything by negative 1 making the equation 3x=22

Divide 22 by 3 and you get your answer.
