X:3 (2x-5) - 2 (4x+1) = -5 (x+3) - 2.

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation given

3 (2x-5) - 2 (4x+1) = - 5 (x+3) - 2

Expanding each term

3 (2x) - 3 (5) - 2 (4x) - 2 (1) = - 5 (x+3) - 2

6x - 15 - 8x - 2 = - 5 (x+3) - 2

-2x - 17 = - 5x - 15 - 2

Combining like terms on the left and right side

-2x + 5x = 17 - 15 - 2

3x = 17 - 17

x = 0/3

x = 0

So the solution to the given equation = 0
