Step-by-step explanation:

Hey, there!!

\frac{7}{3x}  =  \frac{2}{x + 5}

By cross multiplication,

7.(x + 5) = 2 \times 3x

7x + 35 = 6x

7x - 6x = -35

Therefore, x= -35.

Answer: x = -35

Explanation:

7/3x = 2/(x+5)

Use cross multiplication:

7(x+5) = 2(3x)
7x + 35 = 6x
35 = 6x - 7x
35 = -x
-35 = x

> 39/9
