Answer:

The solution of given equation 5(x - 6) = 2(x + 3) is given by,

x = 12

Explanation:

It is given that,

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

To find the solution of given equation

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

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

5x - 30 = 2x + 6

5x - 2x = 6 + 30

3x = 36

x = 36/3

x = 12

Therefore the solution of given equation is,

x = 12
