Answer: x = 4

Explanation:


(3)/(5)(10 + 5x) - (1)/(3)(6x + 3)=9


(3)/(5)(10 + 5x)(15) - (1)/(3)(6x + 3)(15)=9(15) multiplied by common denominator

3(10 + 5x)(3) - 1(6x + 3)(5) = 9(15) reduced all fractions

90 + 45x - 30x - 15 = 135 distributed

15x + 75 = 135 simplified (added like terms)

15x = 60 subtracted 75 from both sides

x = 4 divided 15 from both sides
