\frac{8}{3}x=4x+\frac{55}{3}+\frac{7}{3}x
Combine \frac{7}{3}x and \frac{1}{3}x to get \frac{8}{3}x.
\frac{8}{3}x=\frac{19}{3}x+\frac{55}{3}
Combine 4x and \frac{7}{3}x to get \frac{19}{3}x.
\frac{8}{3}x-\frac{19}{3}x=\frac{55}{3}
Subtract \frac{19}{3}x from both sides.
-\frac{11}{3}x=\frac{55}{3}
Combine \frac{8}{3}x and -\frac{19}{3}x to get -\frac{11}{3}x.
x=\frac{55}{3}\left(-\frac{3}{11}\right)
Multiply both sides by -\frac{3}{11}, the reciprocal of -\frac{11}{3}.
x=\frac{55\left(-3\right)}{3\times 11}
Multiply \frac{55}{3} times -\frac{3}{11} by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.
x=\frac{-165}{33}
Do the multiplications in the fraction \frac{55\left(-3\right)}{3\times 11}.
x=-5
Divide -165 by 33 to get -5.
