You would divide both sides by -5
Giving you x = -3
therefore your answer is -3

remember you can do anything to an eqautoin as long as you do oit to both sides
-5x=15
try to get 1x by itself
remember
(ax)/a=x when a=a
so
-5x=15
get x
divide both sides by -5
remember to flip sign
(-5x)/(-5)=15/(-5)
x=-3
answer is first one
x=-3
