First you have to multiply 3(2x+1)/3 the 3 cancels out so now you have 2x+1 but whatever you do to one side you have to do to the other so multiply 3(x-2) you should get 3x-6.
2x+1=3x-6
now subtra 2x-2x and 2x-3x because 2x is smaller than 3xnow you have
1=x-6
add 6 to both sides to cancel out you should get
7=x
you can switch to make more sense so your answer is
We know that in 3 weeks you get $15 now you can divide 3 by 15 to get $5 per week so since we know how much you earn per week you multiply $5 by 5 weeks to get $25
