Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
Add similar elements: -5x+3x=-2x
-2x+15=-3
Subtract 15 from both sides
-2x + 15-15=-3-15
Simplify
-2x=-18
Divide both sides by -2
-21/-2 = -18/-2
Simplify
x=9
2*(x-5) = -33, so x-5 = -16.5, so x = -11.5
This is assuming that "the difference between a and b" is a-b, which seems to be the accepted interpretation.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
4x2 + 3x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 4 • 4 = 16
Step-2 : Find two factors of 16 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is 3 .
-16+-1=-17
-8+-2=-10
-4+-4=-8
-2+-8=-10
-1+-16=-17
1+16=17
2+8=10
4+4=8
8+2=10
16+1=17
Final result :
4x2 + 3x + 4
