x = $\frac{17}{24}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- $\frac{5}{8}$ - (- $\frac{4}{3}$ ) = x

Note that - (- $\frac{4}{3}$ ) = + $\frac{4}{3}$ , thus

- $\frac{5}{8}$ + $\frac{4}{3}$ = x

Multiply through by 24 ( the lcm of 8 and 3 ) to clear the fractions

- 15 + 32 = 24x

17 = 24x ( divide both sides by 24 )

$\frac{17}{24}$ = x
