Answer:

( -3 - 7 ) ÷ 5 = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

( x - 7 ) ÷ 5 = -2

( -3 - 7 ) ÷ 5 = -2

( -10 ) ÷ 5 = -2

-10 ÷ 5 = -2

The answer is -3

The answer is negative 2 because if you minus negative 3 by 7 first, it will give you negative 10. When you divide negative 10 by 5, you get negative 2, which is the answer to the equation.

Hope this helps! <3
