6x - 3 = 5x - 5
First you can subtract 5x from both sides of the equation to get all the 'x' terms on the same side:
6x - 3 = 5x - 5
6x - 3 - 5x = 5x - 5x - 5
x - 3 = - 5
Now we can add 3 to both sides of the equation to find out what 'x' equals:
x - 3 = - 5
x - 3 + 3 = - 5 + 3
x = - 2 , this is the solution to the equation.
