-2x/3 - 5 = 5 Add 5 to both sides: -2x/3 = 10 Multiply both sides by 3: -2x = 30 Divide both sides by -2: x = -15
Because all the terms have been divided by -1
I meant 2x+6
2x+3 = 3x+5 2x-3x = 5-3 -x = 2 x = -2
2x - 3 = 2x - 52x = 2x - 22x - 2x = -20 =/= -2Zero is not equal to -2 so the answer is no solution.

2x - 5 divided by 3 = 2/3x - 5/3
3x + 2 + 2x = 7; 3x + 2x = 5x, so 5x + 2 = 7; 7-2=5, so 5x=5. 5x divided by 5 and 5 divided by 5 equals 1, so x equals 1.
2x-3 = x+5 2x-x = 8 x = 8
-3(x-5)=2x -3x+15=2x 15=5x x=3
2x+3 = 3x+5 2x-3x = 5-3 -x = 2 x = -2
2x
2x - 3 = 2x - 52x = 2x - 22x - 2x = -20 =/= -2Zero is not equal to -2 so the answer is no solution.
0.1 I disagree. It is 1/2 (a half)
Solve for y.2x - 3y = 52x - 2x - 3y = -2x + 5-3y = -2x + 5-3y/-3 = -2x/-3 + 5/-3y = (2/3)x - 3/5Clearly you see that the slope is 2/3.
