We have been given an equation
gv=-3x +5. We are asked to solve our given equation for x.

First of all, we will separate expression with x on one side of equation. We can do it by subtracting 5 from both sides of equation.


gv-5=-3x +5-5


gv-5=-3x

Now we will switch the sides as:


-3x=gv-5

Now we will divide both sides by
-3 as:


(-3x)/(-3)=(gv-5)/(-3)


x=-(gv-5)/(3)

Therefore, the value of x would be
-(gv-5)/(3).
