Answer:

x = -3/7

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x + 3) = -2(x - 6)

Multiply the values on the outside of the parenthesis by what is on the inside.

5x + 15 = -2x + 12

Combine like terms by bringing them over to the other side using the necessary operation (addition or subtraction).

Bring -2x over to the left side by adding it to 5x.

5x + 2x = 7x

Bring 15 over to the right side by subtracting it from 12.

12 - 15 = -3

Now we have:

7x = -3

We need to get the x all by itself, so we divide both sides by 7.

7x/7 = x

-3/7 cannot be simplified further, so it is left as -3/7.
