3 (3x+5)=2 (2x-5) solve for x

Answer 1

The answer is x=-5

Here’s the steps:

3(3x+5)=2(2x-5)
Distribute
9x+15=4x-10
Subtract 4x from each side
5x+15=-10
Subtract 15 from each side
5x=-25
Divide each side by 5
x=-5

Answer 2

-5

Explanation:

3(3x + 5) = 2(2x - 5)

9x + 15 = 4x - 10

9x - 4x = -15 - 10

5x = - 25

x = -5
