Answer:

-3

Explanation:

With the information you have given, you can create a equation of,

6 - 5x = 21

Then, you just have to sort out the equation in order till you get the x alone.

First, subtract 6 from both sides,

- 5x = 15

Second, divide each side by - 5.

x = -3

Then, it done!!

Hope this helps!!

Let me know if I'm wrong...
