Answer:

No solution

Explanation:

Let's solve this equation to see if there are any solutions.

First we need to simplify it;

10 + 6x = 15 + 9x - 3x

Combine like terms:

6x - 9x + 3x = 15 - 10

0x = 5

0 = 5

Zero cannot be equal to 5, so there is no solution

Simplifying
10 + 6x = 15 + 9x + -3x

Combine like terms: 9x + -3x = 6x
10 + 6x = 15 + 6x

Add '-6x' to each side of the equation.
10 + 6x + -6x = 15 + 6x + -6x

Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0
10 + 0 = 15 + 6x + -6x
10 = 15 + 6x + -6x

Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0
10 = 15 + 0
10 = 15

Solving
10 = 15

Couldn't find a variable to solve for.

This equation is invalid, the left and right sides are not equal, therefore there is no solution.
