Answer 1

To solve the equation \( 3 - 65x = -3 \):

1. Start with the original equation: \[ 3 - 65x = -3 \]

2. Subtract 3 from both sides: \[ -65x = -3 - 3 \] \[ -65x = -6 \]

3. Divide both sides by -65: \[ x = \frac{-6}{-65} = \frac{6}{65} \]

So, none of the provided options (x=5, x=6, x=-5, x=0) are correct. The solution is \( x = \frac{6}{65} \).
