Let's use distributive property to simplify:
[tex]-35-5x+2\frac{5}{6}x=0[/tex]Now we add up the x's and take number to another side:
[tex]\begin{gathered} -5x+2\frac{5}{6}x=35 \\ -2\frac{1}{6}x=35 \end{gathered}[/tex]We make 2 and one-sixth into improper fraction and divide to get x:
[tex]\begin{gathered} -\frac{13}{6}x=35 \\ x=\frac{35}{-\frac{13}{6}} \\ x=35\cdot-\frac{6}{13}=-\frac{210}{13} \end{gathered}[/tex]x is "minus 210 over thirteen"
