Answer:

D(Yes;-5) is correct.

drek231 [11]

$\\
\text{Michael distrinutes 2345 packages of screws into 5 equal groups for shipping.}\\
\\
\text{we need to find the number of packages of screws in each group.}\\
\\
\text{so for this we use the unitary method.}\\
\\
\text{The number of packages of screws in 5 groups}=2345\\
\\
\text{so the number of packages of screws in 1 group}=\frac{2345}{5}\\

▹ Answer

x = -7

▹ Step-by-Step Explanation

-3x - 4(4x - 8) = 3(-8x - 1)
