To solve for x, let's first isolate the term with x by moving other terms to the other side of the equation:
3 − 6/5x = −3
First, let's add 3 to both sides of the equation:
3 - 3 - 6/5x = -3 - 3
-6/5x = -6
Next, let's multiply each side of the equation by -5:
-5(-6/5x) = -5(-6)
6x = 30
Finally, let's divide each side of the equation by 6:
(6x)/6 = 30/6
x = 5
Therefore, x equals 5.
3 − 6/5x = −3
First, let's add 3 to both sides of the equation:
3 - 3 - 6/5x = -3 - 3
-6/5x = -6
Next, let's multiply each side of the equation by -5:
-5(-6/5x) = -5(-6)
6x = 30
Finally, let's divide each side of the equation by 6:
(6x)/6 = 30/6
x = 5
Therefore, x equals 5.
