Solve the equation . Show your work

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

First you multiply by crossover and you get 3(5-x)=18

Then divide the two wings and you'll get 5-x=6

Then you need to separate the x from the numbers

so you move 5 to the right side and you get -x=6-5

Then you calculate it and you get -x=1

and x= -1

hope it helped <3

Answer 2

Answer:

$x=-1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation

$\frac{5-x}{9}=\frac{2}{3}$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}9$

$\frac{9\left(5-x\right)}{9}=\frac{2\cdot \:9}{3}$

$5-x=6$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}5\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}$

$5-x-5=6-5$

$-x=1$

$x=-1$
