Answer:
x=-10
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
The first step to your problem is to do the distributive property.
-3 times x = -3x
-3 times 5 = -15.
-3x+-15 = -45
The next step is to add 15 to both sides of the equation.
-15 + 15 = 0
-45 + 15 = 30
-3x+-30
The last step is to divide both numbers by 3.
-3÷3 = 1x which also equals x
-30÷3 = -10.
Thus, x=-10.
I hope this helped you.. Have a great day :)
