Answer:

-3.5 or -7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Pentagons have five sides, so 15x+35

15x+35=5

subtract 35

15x+35-35=5x-35

simplify

15x=5x-35

subtract 5x

15x-5x=5x-35-5x

simplify

10x=-35

divide by 10

[tex]\frac{10x}{10}=\frac{-35}{10}[/tex]

simplify

[tex]x=-\frac{7}{2}[/tex] or also -3.5
