Answer:

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3x+4(x+5)=5(6−x)

3x+(4)(x)+(4)(5)=(5)(6)+(5)(−x)(Distribute)

3x+4x+20=30+−5x

(3x+4x)+(20)=−5x+30(Combine Like Terms)

7x+20=−5x+30

7x+20=−5x+30

Step 2: Add 5x to both sides.

7x+20+5x=−5x+30+5x

12x+20=30

Step 3: Subtract 20 from both sides.

12x+20−20=30−20

12x=10

Step 4: Divide both sides by 12.

12x /12 =  10 /12

x=  5/6

(sorry this was long hope this helps)
