Question
Solve the equation
x=−11
Evaluate
15x−6(2x−5)=−3
Move the expression to the left side
15x−6(2x−5)−(−3)=0
If a negative sign or a subtraction symbol appears outside parentheses, remove the parentheses and change the sign of every term within the parentheses
15x−6(2x−5)+3=0
Calculate the sum or difference
More Steps
Evaluate
15x−6(2x−5)+3
Expand the expression
More Steps
Calculate
−6(2x−5)
Apply the distributive property
−6×2x−(−6×5)
Multiply the numbers
−12x−(−6×5)
Multiply the numbers
−12x−(−30)
If a negative sign or a subtraction symbol appears outside parentheses, remove the parentheses and change the sign of every term within the parentheses
−12x+30
15x−12x+30+3
Subtract the terms
More Steps
Evaluate
15x−12x
Collect like terms by calculating the sum or difference of their coefficients
(15−12)x
Subtract the numbers
3x
3x+30+3
Add the numbers
3x+33
3x+33=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
3x=0−33
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
3x=−33
Divide both sides
33x=3−33
Divide the numbers
x=3−33
Solution
