Answer 2

Answer:

x=-7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi student! Let me help you out.

_________________

First, add 5 to both sides.

$\sf 3x=-26+5$. Upon simplifying, we obtain this.

$\sf 3x=-21$.

                                           ↪

Now divide both sides, by 3.

$\sf x=-7$

$\therefore,\sf the \quad value \quad of \quad x \quad is \quad -7$. Which is our final answer.
