The answer is B correct @kropot72
OpenStudy (tkhunny):
Notation: (-7/3)x - 3 = -52
You can just type that in.
Add 3 to both sides...
(-7/3)x - 3 + 3 = -52 + 3
(-7/3)x = -49
Let the notation make the words and pictures.

\[\large -\frac{7x}{3}=-49\]
The next step is to multiply both sides of this equation by 3. What do you get?

\[\large -7x=-147\]
Dividing each side by -7 gives the value of x.
