It's a simple linear equation in 'x'.
If you'd like to know the value of 'x' that makes it true,
you can find it like this:
(x+8)/5 = -3
Multiply each side by 5:
x+8 = -15
Subtract 8 from each side:
X = -23
===============================
The equation could have been read as
X + (8/5) = -3
Subtract 1.6 from each side:
X = -4.6
