X-22=-7+3/5x
Answer x= 75/2
Step-by-step explanation:

X-22=-7+3/5x multiply both sides of the equation my 5
5x-110= -35+3x

Move the variable to the left-hand side and change its sign
5x-110-3x= -35

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
5x-3x= -35+110

Collect like terms
2x= -35+110

Calculate the sum
2x=75

Divide both sides of the equation by 2
x=75/2
