Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
use the distributive law to factor the equation
add 24y to both sides
subtract 3x from both sides
divide both sides by 18
simplify -15/18 to -5/6
answer
you can check this answer by plugging it back into the original equation
simplify 10/6 to 5/3
note that x = (3/3)*x
OK
checking answers is always a good idea when you have the time
