Answer:

x = -24/5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x – 3 + 3x = – 27

Combine like terms

5x -3 = -27

Add 3 to each side

5x-3+3 = -27+3

5x = -24

Divide each side by 5

5x/5 = -24/5

x = -24/5

Answer:

x= -24/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, we need to get x by itself.

2x – 3 + 3x = – 27

Combine like terms

(2x+3x)-3= -27

5x-3=-27

Add 3 to both sides

5x-3+3=-27+3

5x= -24

Divide both sides by 5

5x/5= -24/5

x= -24/5
