Solve 3x 15=-5(x-3)

Evaluate

3 x \times 15 = - 5 (x - 3)

Multiply the terms

45 x = - 5 (x - 3)

Expand the expression

More Steps

45 x = - 5 x + 15

Move the variable to the left side

45 x + 5 x = 15

Add the terms

More Steps

50 x = 15

Divide both sides

\frac{50 x}{50} = \frac{15}{50}

Divide the numbers

x = \frac{15}{50}

Solution

x = \frac{3}{10}

Alternative Form

x = 0.3
