Answer: x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

First you change 1/4 to 2/8. Then you want to get all of your x values on one side. So, +5/8x to each side turning your equation into 7/8x+2= -5. Then -2 from each side. 7/8x= -7. Finally get your variable by itself. Divide each side by 7/8 or multiple each side by its reciprocal (8/7)
