<h3>hello!</h3>

Let's solve this equation.

Step 1

Move the numbers to the right:-

5x=2x-3-3

Step 2

Move the x's to the left

5x-2x=-3-3

Notice I use the opposite operation :)

Step 3

Combine like terms

3x=-6x

Step 4

Divide both sides by 3

x=-2

That's the value of x that makes the equation true.

Hope everything is clear; if you need any clarification/explanation, kindly let me know, and I'll comment and/or edit my answer :)

Answer:

$\tan 3x=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{3} =\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} } =tan\frac{\pi }{6} =tan (n\pi +\frac{\pi }{6} )\\3x=n\pi +\frac{\pi }{6} =\frac{(6n+1)\pi }{6} \\x=\frac{(6n+1)\pi }{18} \\where~x~is~an~integer.$

Step-by-step explanation:

tan 3x=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{3} =\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} } =tan\frac{\pi }{6} =tan (n\pi +\frac{\pi }{6} )\\3x=n\pi +\frac{\pi }{6} =\frac{(6n+1)\pi }{6} \\x=\frac{(6n+1)\pi }{18} \\

$63.90 - $5.40 = $58.50

$58.50 / $11.70 = 5
