[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To solve for x in the equation ax + b = 0, we can use the following steps:

1. Subtract b from both sides of the equation to isolate the term ax:
ax = -b

2. Divide both sides of the equation by a to solve for x:
x = -b/a

Therefore, x = -b/a is the solution for the equation ax + b = 0.
