The equation 5/3x+11/3=−4/3 is solved as follows. Fill in the correct numbers to complete the solution.(1 point)
what goes in this box: 5/3 x=____
what goes in this box: x=____
To solve the equation, we need to first isolate the variable x.
Given equation: 5/3x + 11/3 = -4/3
Subtract 11/3 from both sides of the equation:
5/3x = -4/3 - 11/3
5/3x = -15/3
Now, simplify the right side:
5/3x = -15/3
To cancel out the denominator of 3, multiply both sides of the equation by its reciprocal, which is 3/1:
(3/1) * (5/3x) = (3/1) * (-15/3)
(3/3) * (5/3x) = -45/3
Simplify the left side:
(1) * (5/3x) = -45/3
5/3x = -45/3
Now, divide both sides of the equation by 5/3 to solve for x:
(5/3x) / (5/3) = (-45/3) / (5/3)
x = -45/3 * (3/5)
x = -45/5
Simplifying further:
x = -9
Therefore, the solution to the equation 5/3x + 11/3 = -4/3 is x = -9.
what goes in this box: 5/3 x = -15/3
what goes in this box: x = -9
nope, wrong
Apologies for the mistake. Let's solve the equation correctly.
Given equation: 5/3x + 11/3 = -4/3
Subtract 11/3 from both sides of the equation:
5/3x = -4/3 - 11/3
5/3x = -15/3
Now, simplify the right side:
5/3x = -15/3
To cancel out the denominator of 3, multiply both sides of the equation by its reciprocal, which is 3/1:
(3/1) * (5/3x) = (3/1) * (-15/3)
(3/3) * (5/3x) = -45/9
Simplify the left side:
(1) * (5/3x) = -45/9
5/3x = -45/9
Now, divide both sides of the equation by 5/3 to solve for x:
(5/3x) / (5/3) = (-45/9) / (5/3)
x = (-45/9) * (3/5)
x = -135/45
Simplifying further:
x = -3
Therefore, the correct solution to the equation 5/3x + 11/3 = -4/3 is x = -3.
what goes in this box: 5/3 x = -15/3
what goes in this box: x = -3
-15/3 is wrong, but -3 is right
Apologies for the mistake again. You are correct.
To solve the equation, we'll follow the steps correctly this time.
Given equation: 5/3x + 11/3 = -4/3
Subtract 11/3 from both sides of the equation:
5/3x = -4/3 - 11/3
5/3x = -15/3
Now, simplify the right side:
5/3x = -15/3
To cancel out the denominator of 3, multiply both sides of the equation by its reciprocal, which is 3/1:
(3/1) * (5/3x) = (3/1) * (-15/3)
(3/3) * (5/3x) = -45/9
Simplify the left side:
(1) * (5/3x) = -45/9
5/3x = -45/9
Now, simplify the right side:
5/3x = -5
To solve for x, multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 5/3, which is 3/5:
(3/5) * (5/3x) = (-5) * (3/5)
(3/1) * (1/x) = -15/5
Simplify the left side:
(3/1) * (1/x) = 3/x
Now, solve for x:
3/x = -15/5
To isolate x, multiply both sides by x:
(x) * (3/x) = (-15/5) * (x)
3 = (-15/5) * (x)
Simplify the right side:
3 = -3x/5
To solve for x, multiply both sides by 5/(-3):
(5/(-3)) * (3) = (5/(-3)) * (-3x/5)
-(15/3) = (-15/3)x
Simplify the left side:
-5 = -5x
Now, solve for x:
-5x = -5
Divide both sides by -5 to get the value of x:
x = -5/(-5)
x = 1
Therefore, the correct solution to the equation 5/3x + 11/3 = -4/3 is x = 1.
what goes in this box: 5/3 x = -15/3
what goes in this box: x = 1
no!!! -15/3 is wronggg
Apologies for the mistake. Let's solve the equation correctly.
Given equation: 5/3x + 11/3 = -4/3
Subtract 11/3 from both sides of the equation:
5/3x = -4/3 - 11/3
5/3x = -15/3
Now, simplify the right side:
5/3x = -15/3
To cancel out the denominator of 3, multiply both sides of the equation by its reciprocal, which is 3/1:
(3/1) * (5/3x) = (3/1) * (-15/3)
(3/3) * (5/3x) = -45/9
Simplify the left side:
(1) * (5/3x) = -45/9
5/3x = -45/9
Now, divide both sides of the equation by 5/3 to solve for x:
(5/3x) / (5/3) = (-45/9) / (5/3)
x = (-45/9) * (3/5)
x = -135/45
Simplifying further:
x = -3
Therefore, the correct solution to the equation 5/3x + 11/3 = -4/3 is x = -3.

nooo you idiottttt
I apologize if my previous response was not what you were expecting. It seems there may have been some confusion.
To solve the equation 5/3x + 11/3 = -4/3, we can follow these steps:
1. Begin by subtracting 11/3 from both sides of the equation:
(5/3)x = -4/3 - 11/3
(5/3)x = -15/3
2. Next, simplify the right side of the equation:
(5/3)x = -15/3
3. To isolate x, we want to get rid of the coefficient of (5/3). We can do this by multiplying both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of (5/3), which is 3/5:
(5/3x) * (3/5) = (-15/3) * (3/5)
(15/15)x = -45/15
4. Simplify the left side of the equation:
x = -45/15
5. Finally, simplify the right side:
x = -3
Therefore, the solution to the equation 5/3x + 11/3 = -4/3 is x = -3.
