Simplify 1/3(6x - 15) to 6x - 15/3

6x - 15/3 = 1/2(10x - 4)

Factor out the common term; 3

3(2x - 5)/3 = 1/2(10x - 4)

Cancel out 3

2x - 5 = 1/2(10x - 4)

Simplify 1/2(10x - 4) to 10x - 4/2

2x - 5 = 10x - 4/2

Factor out the common term; 2

2x - 5 = 2(5x - 2)/2

Cancel out 2

2x - 5 = 5x - 2

Subtract 2x from both sides

-5 = 5x - 2 - 2x

Simplify 5x - 2 - 2x to 3x - 2

-5 = 3x - 2

Add 2 to both sides

-5 + 2 = 3x

Simplify -5 + 2 to -3

-3 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3

- 1 = x

Switch sides

<u>x = -1</u>
