2+3=5

28x+5=-67

28x+5-5=-67-5

28x=-72

-72/28= -18/7

-18/7 as a mixed number would be -2 4/7

x = - 2 4/7

Answer:

D. 28x + 14 + 3 = - 67

Explanation:

Given 7 ( 4x + 2 ) + 3 = - 67

our first step would be to distribute the 7

7 * 4x = 28x

7 * 2 = 14

we would be left with 28x + 14 + 3 = -67 which corresponds with "D"
