Answer:

x = [tex]\frac{-17}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, subtract 10 from both sides of the equation.

[tex]5x+10=-7[/tex]

[tex]5x+10-10=-7-10[/tex]

[tex]5x=-17[/tex]

Divide both sides by 5.

[tex]\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{-17}{5}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{-17}{5}[/tex]

Hello there!


5x + 10 = -7

To solve this equation, we should start by substracting 10 from both sides.

5x + 10 - 10 = -7 - 10

Remember, when we have two negative signs, we add them and we keep the negative sign

thus,

5x = -17

Then divide both sides by 5

5x/5 = -17/5


x = -17/5


Sorry for the late reply, I had to go do something else as I was typing the answer.
