Answer:

x=-1.625  Decimal form  

x= -13/8    Fraction form

Step-by-step explanation:

3(-2x-1)=2(x+5)

Use distributive property to solve-

-6x-3=2x+10

Now add like terms

-6x-3=2x+10

    +3       +3

   -6x=2x+13  (get the x by itself)

  -2x    -2x

-8x=13     Divide

x= -1.625   Decimal form

x=-13/8   Fraction form
