Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

3 x + 1 = -14

Subtract 1 from both sides:

3 x + (1 - 1) = -14 - 1

1 - 1 = 0:

3 x = -14 - 1

-14 - 1 = -15:

3 x = -15

Divide both sides of 3 x = -15 by 3:

(3 x)/3 = (-15)/3

3/3 = 1:

x = (-15)/3

The gcd of -15 and 3 is 3, so (-15)/3 = (3 (-5))/(3×1) = 3/3×-5 = -5:

Answer:  x = -5
