To solve the equation \( 3 - \frac{6}{5} x = -3 \), we can follow these steps:

1. **Isolate the term with \( x \)**:
\[
3 - \frac{6}{5} x = -3
\]
Subtract \( 3 \) from both sides:
\[
-\frac{6}{5} x = -3 - 3
\]
\[
-\frac{6}{5} x = -6
\]

2. **Multiply by -1**:
\[
\frac{6}{5} x = 6
\]

3. **Get \( x \) by itself** by multiplying both sides by \( \frac{5}{6} \):
\[
x = 6 \times \frac{5}{6}
\]
\[
x = 5
\]

The solution is:
\[
\boxed{x = 5}
\]

So the correct response is \( x = 5 \) or \( x \text{ equals } 5 \).
