Answer:

[tex]x=-\frac{7}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{3}{x+2} =5\\[/tex]

Multiply (x+2) on both sides.

[tex]3=5(x+2)[/tex]

Use distributive property.

[tex]3=5x+10[/tex]

Subtract 10 from both sides.

[tex]3-10=5x[/tex]

[tex]-7=5x[/tex]

Divide 5 from both sides.

[tex]\frac{-7}{5} =x[/tex]
