You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Can you write differently or is that meant exactly as shown?

-6 +3 x (5-7x) = -9 -10x
-6+%2B3+x+%285-7x%29+=+-9+-10x

-6%2B15x-21x%5E2=-9x-10x
6-15x%2B21x%5E2=9x%2B10x
21x%5E2-15x-10x-9x%2B6=0
21x%5E2-34x%2B6=0, and you can try to factor this, or use general quadratic formula solution.

If this outlined character is intended as a multiplication symbol and not as variable, -6%2B3%2Ahighlight%28x%29%285-7x%29=-9+-10x, then x=18%2F11.
