Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's flip the equation so x is on the left. We want to isolate x to see what it equals.

4x+3=-13

We subtract 3 from both sides.

4x=-16

We divide both sides by 4.

x=-4.

Have a wonderful day! :D

Answer:

[tex] \boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{x = - 4}}}}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \sf{ - 13 = 4x + 3}[/tex]

Swap the sides of the equation

[tex] \longrightarrow{ \sf{4x + 3 = - 13}}[/tex]

Move 3 to right hand side and change it's sign

[tex] \longrightarrow{ \sf{4x = - 13 - 3}}[/tex]

The negative integers are always added but posses the negative ( - ) sign

[tex] \longrightarrow{ \sf{4x = - 16}}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4

[tex] \longrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{4x}{4} = \frac{ - 16}{4}}} [/tex]

Calculate

[tex] \longrightarrow{ \sf{x = - 4}}[/tex]

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D
