Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

-30 = 5(x+1)

First, multiply out the 5

-30 = 5x + 5

Then subtract 5 from each side

-35 = 5x

Finally, divide each side by 5

-7 = x

Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

-30 = 5 (x + 1)

5 x -6 = -30

so x + 1 needs to equal -6

-7 + 1 = -6

so x = -7

-30 = 5(-7 + 1)
