Answer:

Explanation:

ok so first your going to do distributive property from left to right.

5 times 2x= 10x, 5 times 3= 15 so now the first part of the equation in 10x + 15 =

3 times 3x= 9x, 3 times 12= 36

so now its 10x+15=9x+36

now subtract 15 from the left side

and whatevr you do to one side you do to the other. The equation is now:

10x=9x+21

now subract 9x from 9x and from 10x

so now 1x=21

now divide by one so ur answer is x=21
