Answer:
x=−2
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
3(x−3)=5(2x+1)
(3)(x)+(3)(−3)=(5)(2x)+(5)(1)(Distribute)
3x+−9=10x+5
3x−9=10x+5
Step 2: Subtract 10x from both sides.
3x−9−10x=10x+5−10x
−7x−9=5
Step 3: Add 9 to both sides.
−7x−9+9=5+9
−7x=14
Step 4: Divide both sides by -7.
−7x
−7
=
14
−7
x=−2
