Answer: X= -9

Explanation:

Expand.
3(x+15)−6x=−6(x−3)

Simplify 3x+45-6x to -3x+45.
-3x+45−6x=−6x+18

Add 6x to both sides.
−3x+45=−6x+18

Simplify-3x+45+6x to 3x+45.
3x+45=18

Subtract 45 from both sides.
3x=18−45

Simplify 18-45 to -27.
3x=−27

Divide both sides by 3
X=-27/3

Simplify 27/3 to 9.
(X=-9)
