Answer 1

Answer: x=5
5x-3 (x-3)= -6 +6x -5
5x -3x +9 =-6 +6 x -5

Answer:

  x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property lets us eliminate parentheses on the left.

  5x -3x +9 = -6 +6x -5

Collecting terms, we get ...

  2x +9 = 6x -11

Subtracting 2x leaves ...

  9 = 4x -11

Adding 11 gives ...

  20 = 4x

Finally, dividing by 4, we have the solution ...

  5 = x
