(5+x)/(-8)=-2

\frac{5 + x}{- 8} = - 2

x = 11

Solution steps

\frac{5 + x}{- 8} = - 2

Multiply both sides by

- 8

5 + x = 16

Move

5

to the right side

x = 11

4 x + 4 (\frac{360 - 6 x}{4}) = 300

j^{2} + 10 j + 16

3 x - 5 (2 x - 1) + \frac{1}{3} (x - 2) = \frac{1}{2} (x - 1)

0 = x^{2} + 4 x - 8

\frac{n}{4} = 4
