Answer:

  (a)  x=−20 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply by the product of the denominators and solve the resulting linear equation in the usual way.

  \dfrac{2}{7}=\dfrac{-5}{x+3}\\\\2(x+3)=-5(7)\qquad\text{multiply by $7(x+3)$}\\\\2x+6=-35\qquad\text{simplify}\\\\2x=-41\qquad\text{subtract 6}\\\\\boxed{x=-20\dfrac{1}{2}}\qquad\text{divide by 2}

\frac{25x}{25}  =  \frac{65}{25}  \\  \\ x =  \frac{13}{5}  = 2.6
