Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x - 3) = 2(x + 3)                     Distribute

5x - 15 = 2x + 6                    

    + 15         + 15                     Switch sides to the liked terms

5x = 2x + 6 + 15

-2x  -2x                                   Switch sides to the liked terms

5x - 2x = 6 + 15  

<u>3x</u> = 21                                      Divide

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation: 5(x-3) = 2(x+3)

Step 1: Simplify the equation.

5 (x − 3) = 2(x + 3)

(5)(x) + (5)(−3) = (2)(x) + (2)(3) Distribute

5x + −15 = 2x + 6

5x − 15 = 2x + 6

Step 2: Subtract 2x.

5x − 15 −2x = 2x + 6 −2x

3x − 15 = 6

Step 3: Add 15.

3x − 15 + 15 = 6 + 15

3x = 21

Step 4: Divide by 3.

\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{21}{3}

Step 5: Divide 21 by 3.

The answer is x = 7.
