Question

5(x-3)=3(x-1) find the x​

Answer 1

Answer:

5x - 15=3x -3

5x -3x= -3 +15

2x = 12

x= 12÷2

x=6

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify 5(x−3)5(x-3)

5x − 15 = 3 (x−1)

Simplify 3 (x-1)

5x - 15 = 3x - 3

Move all the terms containing x to the left side of the equation by subtracting 3x from each side.

5x - 15 - 3x = -3

Subtract 3x from 5x

2x - 15 = -3

Move all the terms not containing x to the right side of the equation by adding 15 to both sides.

2x = -3 + 15

Add -3 and 15 together

2x = 12

Divide it by 2 to isolate the variable

x = 6
