Question

Solve: −8x−7/ 3 =11

Answer 1

Answer: $x=-\frac{5}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation $-8x-\frac{7}{3}=11$, you need find the value of the variable x.

Then, you have to solve for x:

 Add $\frac{7}{3}$ to both sides of the equation.

Divide by -8 to both sides of the equation.

Once you do this proccedure, you will get the value of the variable x.

Then:

$-8x-\frac{7}{3}+\frac{7}{3}=11+\frac{7}{3}$

$-8x=\frac{40}{3}\\\\\frac{-8x}{-8}=\frac{\frac{40}{3}}{-8}\\\\x=-\frac{5}{3}$
