X/2-3(x+9)=X/5
I am going to assume this is
(1/2)x - 3(x + 9) = (1/5)x rearrange as
(1/2)x - (1/5)x = 3(x + 9) get a common denominator on the left and simplify the right
([5 - 2]/10)x = 3x + 27
(3/10)x = 3x + 27 multiply both sides by 10
3x = 30x + 270 subtract 30x from both sides
-27x = 270 divide both sides by -27
x = -10
