Answer:
Hope this helps :)
Explanation:
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
Exact Form:
x=−35/6
Decimal Form:
x=−5.8¯3 (Repeating)
Mixed Number Form:
x=−5 5/6
x=-35/6
2 + 3( 4x + 5) = -53
subtract 2 from both sides= 3(4x+5)=-55
divide both sides by 3 = 4x+5=-55/3
subtract both sides by 5 = 4x=-70/3
divide both sides by 4 = x=-35/6
x=-35/6 is your final answer
