Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the number we are solving for

5+2x=6-3x

we can re write this as

2 + 5 = − 3 + 6

Subtract  5   from both sides of the equation

2x=-3x+1

add 3x to both sides

5x=1

Divide both sides by 5

x=1/5

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

5 + 2x = 3x - 6

5 + 2x - 3x = 3x - 3x - 6

5 -1x = -6

5 - 5 - 1x = -6 - 5

-1x = -11

-1x/-1 = -11/-1

x = 11
