Answer 2

Answer:

x = -37

Step-by-step explanation:

(x-5) / 7    - 8         = (2x + 4) / 5

(x-5) / 7    - 56/7         = (2x + 4) / 5

x-5-56         = (2x+4) / 5 * 7

x - 61 =  14x + 28 / 5

x = (14x + 28)/5   + 61

x = 14x+28 /5 + 305/5

5x = 14x+28+305

5x-14x = 333

-9x = 333.

x = 333 / -9 = -37
