First subtract 5 from both sides: -3x = -15
Then divide by -3: x = 5

-3x+5=-10 (subtract 5)
-3x=-10 - 5
-3x=-15 (divide by -3)
x = -15/-3
x = 5

-3x+5=-10
-3x+5=-10 Subtract Five from both sides
****-5=-5
----------------
-3x=-15 divide by -3
x=5 because the two negatives cancel

-3x+5-5=-10-5 -----isolate the variable do the same thing to both sides
-3x=-15/-3 ---------- isolate the variable again negative/negative + postive
x=5
