Answer:

-12

Step-by-step explanation:

Reorder the terms:

15 + 5x = -45

Solving

15 + 5x = -45

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-15' to each side of the equation.

15 + -15 + 5x = -45 + -15

Combine like terms: 15 + -15 = 0

0 + 5x = -45 + -15

5x = -45 + -15

Combine like terms: -45 + -15 = -60

5x = -60

Divide each side by '5'.

x = -12 :)
