Hi there!

»»————- ★ ————-««

I believe your answer is:


x=-50

»»————- ★ ————-««

Here’s why:

⸻⸻⸻⸻


\boxed{\text{Solving for 'x'...}}\\\\(x)/(5) +7=-3\\------------\\(x)/(5) + 7 - 7 = - 3-7\\\\\rightarrow (x)/(5) =-10\\\\\rightarrow ((x)/(5)) 5 = -10(5)\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{x=-50}

⸻⸻⸻⸻

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.

\sf (x)/(5) + 7 = -3 \\ \sf (x)/(5) = -3 - 7 \\ \sf (x)/(5) = - 10 \\ \sf x = - 10 * 5 \\ \sf x = \boxed{ \underline{ \bf \: - 50}}
