Answer:

a. -5 + 3x = -41

3x = -36

x = -12

b. 7x - 4 = -2x + 11

9x = 15

x = 15/9 = 1 and 2/3

c. (-4x) / 5 = 8

-4x = 40

x = -10

d. x / 3 - 1/2 = 1/4

4x - 6 = 3 (multiply by lcm of 3, 2 and 4 which is 12)

4x = 9

x = 9/4 = 2 and 1 / 4

e. -4(6x + 1) + 3 = 11 + 2(x + 2)

-24x - 4 + 3 = 11 + 2x + 4

-24x - 1 = 2x + 15

-26x = 16

x = -8/13
