Step-by-step explanation:

  • 5(x+3)+8=6
  • 5(x+3)=6-8
  • 5(x+3)=-2
  • 5x+15=-2
  • 5x=-2-15
  • 5x=-17
  • x=-17/5
  • x=-3.4

Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x + 3) + 8 = 6 ← distribute parenthesis and simplify left side

5x + 15 + 8 = 6

5x + 23 = 6 ( subtract 23 from both sides )

5x = - 17 ( divide both sides by 5 )

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