Answer:

x = 3

Explanation:

-4x - (-3 - 5x) =  -3(2x - 8)

  • Expand -4x - (-3 - 5x): x + 3
  • Expand -3(2x - 8): -6x + 24

x + 3 = -6x + 24

  • Subtract 3 From Both Sides

x + 3 - 3 = -6x + 24 --3

  • Simplify

x = -6x + 21

  • Add 6x To Both Sides

x + 6x = -6x + 6x + 21

  • Simplify

7x = 21

  • Divide Each Side By 7

7x / 7 = 21 / 7

  • x = 3
