Answer:

x = 11

Explanation:

2(3x+5) = 4(2x - 3)

First expand the terms

That's

6x + 10 = 8x - 12

6x - 8x + 10 = - 12

- 2x + 10 = - 12

Subtract 10 from both sides

That's

- 2x + 10 - 10 = - 12 - 10

- 2x = - 22

Divide both sides by - 2

We have the final answer as

x = 11

Hope this helps you
