Answer:

x=17/13

Step-by-step explanation:

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

-9x+9=4x-8

-13x= -17

x=17/13

Answer 2

Answer:

$1\frac{4}{13}$

Step-by-step explanation:

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

-----------------------------

This also equals to:

-3*(3x-3)=4/5*(5x-10)

-----------------------------

Start by opening the parentheses:

-3*(3x-3)=4/5*(5x-10)

Then use distributive property:

(-3*3x) + (-3*-3)= (4/5*5x) + (4/5*-10)

Simplify the equation:

(-3*3x) + (-3*-3)= (4/5*5x) + (4/5*-10)

-9x+9= 4x-8

    +8       +8

-9x+17= 4x

+9x      +9x

17= 13x

÷13 ÷13

17/13=x

17/13=

$1\frac{4}{13}$
