-3(x + 5) = 3(x - 1) When doing this problem, First multiply through both sides.
-3x - 15 = 3x -3 Remember when you multiply a negative by a positive it's a negative answer.
Next you add 3x to both sides of the equation:
-15 = 6x - 3 Now add three to both sides
-12 = 6x Now divide both sides by 6
-2 = x
Which is your answer!
Hope this helped!
