kx^{2}+3kx+5=-x
Subtract x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
kx^{2}+3kx=-x-5
Subtract 5 from both sides.
\left(x^{2}+3x\right)k=-x-5
Combine all terms containing k.
\frac{\left(x^{2}+3x\right)k}{x^{2}+3x}=\frac{-x-5}{x^{2}+3x}
Divide both sides by x^{2}+3x.
k=\frac{-x-5}{x^{2}+3x}
Dividing by x^{2}+3x undoes the multiplication by x^{2}+3x.
k=-\frac{x+5}{x\left(x+3\right)}
Divide -x-5 by x^{2}+3x.
