Use distributive property:

-2(5x+1)+3(3x-9)

-10x -2 + 9x - 27

-x -29

Answer:

X=-29

Explanation:

First equate the equation to be zero that is -2(5x+1)+3(3x-9)=0

Then open the bracket

-10x-2+9x-27=0

Collect like terms

-10x+9x-2-27=0

-x-29=0

Add 29 to both sides

-x=29

Divide both sides by-

X=-29
