5(x + 2/3) = 3x - 2/3.....distribute the 5 through the parenthesis
5x + 10/3 = 3x - 2/3 ....subtract 3x from both sides
5x - 3x + 10/3 = 3x - 3x - 2/3...combine like terms
2x + 10/3 = - 2/3 ....subtract 10/3 from both sides
2x + 10/3 - 10/3 = -2/3 - 10/3...simplify
2x = - 12/3....reduce
2x = - 4....divide both sides by 2
x = -4/2....reduces to -2
or this way...
5(x + 2/3) = 3x - 2/3.....distribute
5x + 10/3 = 3x - 2/3....multiply by lowest common denominator of 3
15x + 10 = 9x - 2 ....subtract 9x from both sides
15x - 9x + 10 = -2 ...subtract 10 from both sides
6x + 10 - 10 = -2 - 10...simplify
6x = -12.....divide both sides by 6
x = -12/6 reduces to -2

Answer is........... x= 9168
Answer:
No.
Step-by-step explanation:
In reality, it is actually the other way around. 5 is a factor of the number 55. Let's check this statement. This question is asking for the factors of 55. Since this statement was made incorrectly, there are no answers. The answer to the question is no, it is not.
1x + 4 (-×+3) = 6
1× -4× + 12 = 6
-3× = -6
× = 2
2× +2y = 6
× - y = 3
multiply second equation by 2x - 2y = 6
now add equations
4x = 12 so x = 3. substitute 3 - y = 3 so y is 0. check in first equation 2×3 + 2×0 = 6. 6+0= 6
