A)\text{ -39}

Step-by-step explanation


\sqrt[5]{x+7}\text{ = -2}

Step 1

both sides to the power of 5


\begin{gathered} \sqrt[5]{x+7}\text{ = -2} \\ (\sqrt[5]{x+7})^5=(-2)^5 \\ x+7=-32 \end{gathered}

Step 2

subtract 7 in both sides


\begin{gathered} x+7=-32 \\ x+7-7=-32-7 \\ x=-39 \end{gathered}

so, the answer is


A)\text{ -39}

I hope this helps you
