3x+5(-2)=9

3 x + 5 (- 2) = 9

x = \frac{19}{3}

Decimal Notation

x = 6.33333 \dots

Solution steps

3 x + 5 (- 2) = 9

Remove parentheses:

(- a) = - a

3 x - 5 \cdot 2 = 9

Multiply the numbers:

5 \cdot 2 = 10

3 x - 10 = 9

Move

10

to the right side

3 x = 19

Divide both sides by

3

x = \frac{19}{3}

3 \frac{x}{5} + \frac{5}{2} = 4

4 (x + 2) = 10 x

- 6 (3 x - 1) = - 5 x - 33

15 = x + 3
