Question

I can't figure out how to solve for x

Answer 1

The answer i got was x=2 :)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
x−2 over 3−(x+3 over 5)=−1
Simplify: (Show steps)
2 over 15x+−19 over 15=−1
Step 2: Add 19/15 to both sides.
2 over 15x+−19 over 15+19 over 15=−1+19 over 15
2 over 15x=4 over 15
Step 3: Multiply both sides by 15/2.
(15 over 2)*(2 over 15x)=(15 over 2)*(4 over 15)
