Answer: x=1/2 or x=0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand 5(2x+1)-2 which is 10x+3

Sow now you have 10x+3=6x+5

Subtract 3 from both sides 10x+3-3=6x+5-3

which is equal to 10x=6x+2

now you are going to subtract 6x from both sides 10x-6x=6x+2-6x

which is equal to 4x=2 then divide both sides by 4

4x/4 =2/4

x=1/2 or x=0.5
