The solution of the equation which is as described in the task content when expressed in its simplest form is; -5/13.

<h3>What is the solution of the equation as described in the task content?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the solution to the equation is to be determined and expressed in its simplest form.

Given;

-1/2 -1/2(4/5x+1) = -2 -3x

By distributing the coefficients: we have;

-1/2 - 2/5x - 1/2 = -2 -3x

Hence, by collecting like terms; we have;

-1/2 - 1/2 + 2 = -3x + (2/5)x

1 = -13x/5

Therefore; by cross-multiplication; we have;

5 = -13x

Divide both sides by; -13.

x = -5/13.

Ultimately, the solution of the equation which is as described in the task content when expressed in its simplest form is; -5/13.
