5(x + 3) + 9 = 3(x - 2) + 6 5x + 15 + 9 = 3x -6 +6 5x + 24 = 3x 2x + 24 = 0 2x = -24 x = -12 Hope this helps and you can see what you're doing wrong.

No its -12 (minus 12)
-
x = -12 Check: -36 = -36

first lets get rid of brackets 5x+15+9=3x-6+6 now lets put x's on one side, numbers on the other side 5x-3x=-15-9 2x=-24 x=-24/2 x=-12 answer is x=-12

No, it really isn't. Learn to play sports, maybe you'll get an athletics scholarship some day.
