To solve for x, we can first simplify the equation:
3 - (6/5)x = -3
Multiply both sides of the equation by 5 to get rid of the fraction:
5(3) - 5(6/5)x = 5(-3)
15 - 6x = -15
Next, subtract 15 from both sides:
15 - 15 - 6x = -15 - 15
-6x = -30
Divide both sides by -6 to solve for x:
(-6x)/-6 = -30/-6
x = 5
Therefore, the solution to the equation 3 - (6/5)x = -3 is x = 5.
solve for x 3 - 6/5 x = -3
