Answer:
x =-16
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]-2(2x + 5) - 3 = -3(x -1)[/tex]
Expand
[tex]\mathrm{Expand\:}-2\left(2x+5\right)-3:\quad -4x-13\\\\\mathrm{Expand\:}-3\left(x-1\right):\quad -3x+3\\\\-4x-13=-3x+3[/tex]
Collect like terms and simplify
[tex]-4x+3x =3+13\\-x =16\\[/tex]
Divide both side by -1
[tex]\frac{-x}{-1}=\frac{16}{-1}\\\\x =-16[/tex]
