Answer:

x = -5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine like terms: 2x + 3x = 5x - 1 (on the left) -6 + 2x (on the right) (5x - 1 = -6 + 2x)

Get X on one side: Isolate +2x by subtracting 2x on both sides (5x - 2x = 3x) (3x - 1 = -6) Isolate -1 by subtracting 1 on both sides (3x = -5) Isolate 3x by dividing 3 on both sides.

I hope I explained it correctly
