You have to distribute the parentheses first. Since there is a negative sign in front of the parentheses, it counts as a negative 1. After you distribute you should get: -5+6x=20x+12, but that is not your final answer. After you add like terms: 17x=-17. Divide 17 on both sides: x=-1. X=-1 is your final answer.
