To solve the equation we have to rearrange the terms i.e. like terms on one side
[tex]-28 = 22 - 5x[/tex]
Subtracting 22 from both sides we get
[tex] -28 -22 = 22-5x - 22[/tex]
[tex] -50 = -5x[/tex]
Divide both sides by -5 we get
[tex]\frac{-50}{-5} = \frac{-5x}{-5}[/tex]
On simplifying we get
[tex] x =10[/tex]
Hence, x= 10 is your answer
Hope this will help
