Answer: X= -3

Explanation:

7+2x/3=5

what ever we do on one side of the equal sign must be done to the other. if it says to multiply I devide to make the sentance smaller and the same with division and addition and subtraction. I do the opposite to simplify the equation till you are left with nothing but what letter x equals

7+2x/3=5

-7 -7

2x/3= -2

*3 *3

2x = -6

/2 /2

x = -3
