-5x + 5 = 40(<em>Subtrac</em><em>t</em><em> </em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>on</em><em> </em><em>both</em><em> </em><em>sides</em><em>)</em>

<em>-5x</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em>0</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>5</em>

<em>-5x</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>3</em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>Divide</em><em> </em><em>both </em><em>sides</em><em> </em><em>by</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em>5</em><em>)</em>

<em>x</em><em>=</em><em>-</em><em>7</em>
