Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

5 ( 3x + 9 ) − 2x = 15x − 2 ( x − 5 )

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5 ( 3x + 9 ) − 2x = 15x − 2 ( x − 5 )

( 5 ) ( 3x ) + ( 5 ) ( 9 ) + −2x = 15x + ( −2 ) ( x ) + ( −2 ) ( −5 ) ( Distribute )

15x + 45 + −2x = 15x + −2x + 10

( 15x + −2x ) + ( 45 ) = ( 15x + −2x ) + ( 10 ) ( Combine Like Terms )

13x + 45 = 13x + 10

13x + 45 = 13x + 10

Step 2: Subtract 13x from both sides.

13x + 45 − 1 3x = 13x + 10 − 13x

45 = 10

Step 3: Subtract 45 from both sides.

45 − 45 = 10 − 45

0 = −35

Answer:

There are no solutions.

You have to multiply to get a simple equation so it would be 15x+45=15x-2x+10 and that’s where my knowledge stops with that
