What is x?: -8.75x + 14 = -5.25x - 3.5

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

−8.75x+14=−5.25x−3.5

Step 1: Add 5.25x to both sides.

−8.75x+14+5.25x=−5.25x−3.5+5.25x

−3.5x+14=−3.5

Step 2: Subtract 14 from both sides.

−3.5x+14−14=−3.5−14

−3.5x=−17.5

Step 3: Divide both sides by -3.5.

(−3.5x / −3.5) = (−17.5 / −3.5)

x=5

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Our job here is to "solve for x."  We start by grouping like terms.  Addng 5.25x to both sides results in 3.5x on the right side of our equation.  Adding 3.5 to both sides results in 17.5 = 3.5x.

Finally we divide both sides by 3.5 to solve this equation for x:

x = 5

its the second choice.
