Answer:
x = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
» Solution
Step 1: Distribute -5 to the terms inside the parantheses.
- [tex](-5)(x)+(-5)(-6)=60[/tex]
- [tex]-5x+30=60[/tex]
Step 2: Subtract 30 from both sides.
- [tex]-5x+30-30=60-30[/tex]
- [tex]-5x=30[/tex]
Step 3: Divide both sides by -5.
- [tex]-5x/-5=30/-5[/tex]
- [tex]x=-6[/tex]
Therefore, x = -6.
